Abstract
Oral history interview with Gregg Hall conducted by Emily Stratton in Olathe, Kansas, on June 24, 2013. Gregg Hall is the pastor for the Ottawa, Kansas, branch of Life Church. Life Church is a non-denominational church that was planted in Olathe, KS in 2002 in partnership with Resurrection Life Church International (RLCI), an international church-planting organization based in Michigan. In 2012, however, it made the transition into becoming a multi-site church with the launch of a campus in Ottawa, KS. Questions focus upon Gregg’s time with Life Church and the development of the Ottawa Campus (why Ottawa over other locations, logistics of being a part of a multi-site operation, and goals for the church). Near the beginning of the interview, there are also some questions about Life Church’s beginnings as a church plant in 2002 and Life Church’s relationship with RLCI. This interview was conducted for the Religion in Kansas Project as part of a summer fieldwork internship funded by the Friends of the Department of Religious Studies.
