This week we are joined by Henry and Alex Seeley from The Belonging Co. in Nashville, Tennessee. Born and raised in Australia, Henry and Alex Seeley spent many years on the pastoral team at a church in Melbourne, Australia pioneering a worship movement that grew to become a church of over 10,000 people.After relocating to Nashville, Tennessee in April 2012, they began opening their home on Tuesday nights for people to worship, encounter God and build genuine community in a city where people's personal and spiritual lives often succumb to the transient nature of 'life on the road.' Within a few months, their basement was at capacity, and subsequently, The Belonging Co. was born. Since its inception in 2014, the church has become known as a place to find freedom, breakthrough, and healing through God’s Word, His presence, and worship.The heart of The Belonging Co. is that every experience would empower both individuals and the collective body of Christ to encounter God through worship, and experience the freedom that comes from knowing Jesus.Nik + Ross also take some time to update you on their week, what they thought about Star Wars: The Last Jedi, authenticity in church leadership, and their thoughts on Christian alternatives to secular culture.
