God often begins gospel advance with a burden to pray for the next town. In this episode, Mark Gillmore talks with Andrew Haertl about how God led him from a surrendered teenager and college student to pastor a church in Shawano, Wisconsin, and to seek gospel advance in Clintonville and the surrounding region. Will you ask God to show you the next step of faith—and take it?
