The Rev. Steve Hancock, pastor of Second Presbyterian Church in Little Rock, AR, is the guest preacher on Sunday, July 20, at Montreat Conference Center. His sermon, “The End of Religion,” will be taken from the New Testament book of Romans. Part of the continuing summer worship series at the conference center, Rev.
