Episode 34 - The Necessary Practice Of Lament (feat. Soong-Chan Rah)

What is lost when the practice of lament is neglected from the culture and rhythms of the church? How does it diminish our passion and limit our hopeful imagination of how God meets us in our suffering and leads us to experience His restoration and faithfulness? In the second part of our conversation with acclaimed writer and prophetic voice, Rev. Dr. Soong-Chan Rah, we dive into a topic that is not often discussed, but is vital for the church.

Creative Engagements #5 - Pantry & Partnerships: How Loving & Serving Our Neighbours Transforms & Brings Us Together (feat. The Community Connections Team)

We're launching a brand new series for the summer focusing on creative ways to approach mission, community, and discipleship. Members from the Community Connections Team (Andrew Au, Austin Moore, Sandia Webster, and Steve Webster) join us to share about how a common passion for serving their neighbourhood led their churches to partner together to mutually use their gifting and resources to be a presence in their area.

Through starting a food bank and serving meals to those in need, they have grown in their own walk with Christ and experienced creative ways to be a witness and build relationships with those living around them.

Shout out to Anne Hung, the missing member of the team, whose contributions were felt in the experiences and insights shared!
