Mark O'Mara was mentored by John piper, who helped him establish credibility on a broader platform. But for mark, it was a spring board andto the next bigger thing. His church is a perfect example of this: We got funding from our denomination but only through another local church that told us when to pick up the check. There's no actual relational presence in churches now because they're so dependent on technology. He says he would want his congregation to be asking themselves what are we showing up for sundays? If it's about serving the community, then if it's about being remade in the image of christthen i don't know why I'm still here.
