- Transformation by Salt and Light -
Jun, 2008
Nineteen years ago, Bishop Vaughn McLaughlin felt God calling him to leave his church and begin a new work closer to his home in Jacksonville, Florida. He started with 20 people in a small building rented from a Pentecostal church. From the beginning, the attitude of the new body was built around transforming the community.
Spending the day with Bishop McLaughlin is an overwhelming experience in lives transformed by Christ and His love, expressed through the people of The Potter’s House. Not scripted stories, but the spontaneous descriptions of the people seen at various parts of the church’s multiple facilities on a Saturday afternoon. How did the church become a force for the Kingdom that is transforming thousands of lives and entire communities—and even has a bowling alley?
