About this book

Book Summary

And So Do I traces a year in the life of the Assembly of Perpetual Triumph.

Mainly through the experiences of the church's pastor, Eric Young, we find God's redemptive love encountered through pie auctions, chili feeds, a golf league, graduate recognition, Easter lilies, Pentecost, and Christmas decorating. We meet broken characters and we witness their transformations. Central to the book's chapters is answering the question, "How can the church best shepherd the flock?"
