Tuesday Spotlight: Steph Modder

Tuesday, January 10th, 2006

Tuesday Spotlight: Tim Elzea

Tuesday, November 29th, 2005

Who is that man keeping Pastor Mark on track and moving in the right direction on Sunday mornings? It’s Tim Elzea, a very important new addition to the NCC Team.
This morning, we caught up with Tim at his favorite lunch spot (and breakfast, too, apparently)- the corner hot dog cart. While he enjoyed his half [...]
