Daring Faith

In this season finale episode, we had the privilege of being joined once again by Eddie Sfrengeu, as we discuss what unity in Christ means. So often, our churches strive for unity and likeminded vision, but what keeps our community united is not unity at all costs, but rather unity in Christ. So join us as we talk about how the church can shift their perspective on unity, how we can set aside personal differences and preferences for the greater good, what Biblical submission to church authority really looks like, and so much more!

In this episode, we have the opportunity to have Pastor Dorin Druhora of our home church (Emanuel Church of God) joining us! We had such an incredible time recording this episode as we discussed with him the role of men and women in the church. Tune in as we hear what the Bible says about where men and women should serve within the body and what can and will take place when we disregard the divine order that God has established for His church.
