Absurdity with Ryan Becker

A86 The Way We Do Church


Listen Later

We spend the first ten minutes of today giving Ryan's final ADHD update and saying farewell to an amazing woman of God, theologian, and human being--Rachel Held Evans. She passed away May 4 and the Christian world will absolutely miss her voice of love, compassion, and wisdom.  

The main topic of today's episode starts about 9 minutes in as we talk about the purpose of church, the pros and cons of current church models, and we discuss alternative models and approaches to church that we think Christianity could benefit from.
