biblical, servanthood, missional

Dan King is the founder and “chief instigator” at BibleDude.net. He’s also served on the editorial team for TheHighCalling.org, mostly managing social media and writing an occasional post for the website. Dan’s experience in blogging has led him to experience local ministry, community outreach, and global missionary work in a very deep and meaningful way. For Dan, being “missional” is not a trendy term, but it’s where he finds God.
