2019 Following Jesus:
through the storms, the doubt, and the seas

Alaskan fisherwoman Leslie Leyland Fields from Kodiak led us across time and culture to dive into the gospels beside ragtag fisherman-disciples, to the Sea of Galilea, as they followed Jesus. As a commercial salmon fisherwoman and mother of six, her fresh insights helped us discover what it means to "Come, follow me."
Leslie Leyland Fields is an award-winning author, a national speaker, and a popular radio guest. "As we follow after Jesus, he's going to rock our boat. Count on it."
