660: When Is It Time to Leave My Church? Discernment vs Consumerism


Listen Later

When it comes to church, how do you know if it’s time to leave or time to finally commit? What’s the difference between healthy discernment and consumer Christianity? Have we turned church into another product built around our preferences? 

Ben and Luke wrestle with one of the biggest tensions facing Christians today: how to find a healthy church without approaching faith like a consumer. They explore loneliness, commitment, spiritual formation, and the uncomfortable reality that many of us bring baggage into every church we attend.

----------------------

Ben has completely revised and updated his powerful book, Jesus in the Secular World: Reaching a Culture in Crisis—a must-read guide for anyone longing to reach those who may never step foot in a church. Packed with real-world insights and practical strategies, this book could be the breakthrough you’ve been searching for.
