West announced that the Tennessee Christian Missionary Society, which is the state organization of the Disciples of Christ churches in Tennessee, purchased the 1802 Grand Ave property for its new headquarters.

Acquainted with the strengths of homeschooling and private education, Karen Holmes discerned God was changing her career path, but she did not know how or when God would use her.

By presenting his last lecture, he is purposely sharing how he successfully completed his childhood dreams, even though he was limited on time.
