Andy Squyres is a singer-songwriter born and raised in the mountains of Northern California but after moving east in the late 1990’s, he’s spent the last few decades carving songs out of the foothills of his North Carolina home. Heavily influenced by the poetics of Leonard Cohen, Squyres leans heavily into the lyrical tradition of artists like Bob Dylan, The National, and John Mark McMillan, having a passion for words that are equally worshipful and honest.

A Conversation with Joel Kime! Saturday, May 24th, 7 p.m.
Join us as we chat with Joel Kime about his new book, Flourishing in Community: A Theology of Togetherness.

Unfortunately, Christians have too often behaved poorly together, sometimes causing further division, while unfaithfully representing the gospel. What kind of togetherness, then, brings human flourishing?
