Church Would Be Great… If It Weren’t for People (Part 1)
🎙️ Episode Summary
In this episode of CLF Conversations, Perry and Pastor Dave tackle the real questions that arise from the Better Together series.
The conversation explores why church life can sometimes feel messy, how Christians should handle conflict, why slander is dangerous, and what it really means to love, forgive, and bear one another’s burdens.
Ultimately, the New Testament shows that Christian community isn’t optional—it’s part of God’s design for spiritual growth and gospel witness.
While life together can be challenging, it’s also one of the primary ways God shapes believers into the image of Christ.
