Hitchhiking to Substance

Substance Church Peter Haas

Although only in his mid-thirties, Peter has become a well-known pastor, author, and conference speaker.  Substance, the church that he and his wife planted in late 2004, has exploded into one of the fastest growing multi-site churches in the United States.  Being nearby downtown Minneapolis and surrounded by over 16 colleges and universities, Substance has become one of the youngest mega-churches in the United States. Known for it’s progressive worship, cell methods, and obvious appeal to unchurched 20-somethings, Pastor Peter speaks at conferences all over the world on progressive church methodology.
