Episode 48: A Conversation with Rev. Anna Lee
In this episode, we talk with Rev. Anna Lee, the Executive Pastor at Cokesbury UMC in Knoxville, TN. Anna shows us how Cokesbury is living out the Great Commission by inviting people to take their next step because everyone has one! Next steps look different for everybody and are not limited to individuals, churches have next steps too.
Anna shares how Cokesbury Church over the past decade has made taking Next Steps a vital part of the embedded conversation in the conversation. It has become more than an invitation, it is an expectation that everyone always has their own next step.
Listen to Anna and I talk about how Next Steps got its start at Cokesbury and why it has become more than a promotion or a program.
“This applies whether you are 2 or 102 years old, you never reach the end of the runway. Next Steps is a multi-generational approach to discipleship that everyone can get involved with, even young children.”
