Casey Church is the pastor of Good Medicine Way in Albuquerque, NM. He has been in ministry for three decades as a Native American encouraging a contextualized way of worship. In his personal history, he has had painful experiences of being reprimanded and shunned for expressing his love for God in ways familiar to his cultural traditions. Praise God, he has accepted the call to invite Native Americans into culturally contextualized ways of worshipping Jesus!
