Top 5 DUCO Conversations in 2021
Whether 2021 was a challenging year for YOU,
OR
a year YOU want to forget,
OR
a year of regrets,
2021 will be a year of how YOU built resiliency, focus, and creativity.
Well done!
In fact, Biblically speaking, it is in the midst of challenges, regrets, and pain where…
healing can occur…
God bringing the calm…
our frustrations and fears can experience God’s indescribable and unexplainable peace...
the apocalyptic moments when God shows up…
the light can shine in the darkness…
In any case, WHATEVER your 2021 brought to you, you are HERE!
Well done!
And for DUCO, 2021 brought five key conversations about COVID, trends, and topics on Jesus, culture, and the Church.
