Featured Presenters: Jimmy and Taylor Penrod Hi! We are the Penrods and we have decided to shape our lives from the prophetic writing of Isaiah 58 that says, “If you get rid of unfair practices, quit blaming victims, quit gossiping about other people’s sins, If you are generous with the hungry and start giving yourselves to the down-and-out, Your lives will begin to glow in the darkness, your shadowed lives will be bathed in sunlight. I will always show you where to go. I’ll give you a full life in the emptiest of places— firm muscles, strong bones. You’ll be like a well-watered garden, a gurgling spring that never runs dry. You’ll use the old rubble of past lives to build anew, rebuild the foundations from out of your past. You’ll be known as those who can fix anything, restore old ruins, rebuild and renovate, make the community livable again." If you knew us just a couple of years ago, our lives looked very suburban and traditional. It was in these words from Isaiah that our conviction came to sell our home in Johnson County and take up a new home in the heart of Wyandotte County. We are passionate about living fully present in our new space, to be the best neighbors we can be, to seek justice and mercy, and to use the resources we are given to fight for the reconciliation of the community.
