Eric Elnes
This week we talk with Rev. Eric Elnes, Ph.D. about his weekly interactive webcast, Darkwood Brew.
Elnes hosts the weekly show and is also the pastor of Countryside Community Church in Omaha, Nebraska and has published several books along the way, including the Phoenix Affirmations.
Eric shares how three (seemingly) separate events in his life all came together to not only take his passion for small groups to a new level, but also bring the show to fruition.
