U Matters - 24 Jul 2014

by Greg Anderson on July 25, 2014

Tuesday night at Summer Reflection Series we discussed four distinctives of Union: Biblical/Transformational, Communal, Attractional, and Missional. Those present thought we were Communal first, Attractional (strong programs in youth, Sunday School, etc., to bring people in) second, Biblical a close third, and Missional (going out in service) last. They wish Union was Biblical first, Communal second, Missional third, and Attractional last. How would you have voted?

Greg Anderson joined Union as Senior Pastor in January 2007. He has served churches in England and in the US and has taught at Wheaton College. He has degrees from Wheaton, Princeton Seminary, Yale University, and the University of Minnesota. Greg has been married to and besotted by Holly for 29 years. They have four children: Lindsey a chemical engineer in Boston, Andrew a banker in London, Jamie an actor in LA, and John a student at Hong Kong University. Greg has a passion for preaching, evangelism, teaching, church growth, and equipping people for ministry in the marketplace. He gets teased for quoting C S Lewis too often and having a staff so stunning that people wonder what there is left for him to do. He collects and even reads books, watches baseball on the internet, and thanks God daily for the opportunity to serve with such an amazing congregation.
