Strength to Strength welcomed Wendell Martin to discuss the second segment of this “King and Country” series.
From Alexander the Great to Julius Caesar to King James, rulers have grabbed power and controlled empires. But Jesus of Nazareth was made in a different mold. As Pilate asked: “Are you really a King then?”
Let’s look at the arrival of King Jesus and how He controls creation, governs His citizens, and conquers His enemies.
An interactive question-and-answer period follows.

Wendell lives in Pittsburgh PA, with his wife Janet, and six children, where they live and try to love each other like families should. He is part of a small church community with a vision to bear witness to the beauty of Jesus’ kingdom through community life. He’s also a valued team-member of Strength to Strength. He enjoys drinking coffee on his front porch, listening to good books, and bringing old houses back to life again.
Wendell serves on the elder team for their congregation, Disciples of Jesus.
