If you've been a christian long enough and attended church for long enough, the chances are high that you have been hurt by a person or a leader...
So what do you do with that?
And what is a healthy way to go about church community?
Should we just attend and serve? Is it wrong to "church shop"? Should we just honor leaders no matter what?
We get very vulnerable with our process in this episode as well as build a case for how we believe church community should be done.
Hope you enjoy the episode!
