DescriptionWhat happens when we prioritize presence over programs? Hosts Johan Heinrichs and Wendi Park converse with Erin Oxford, Executive Director and Pastor of The Dale Ministries in Toronto. Erin shares poignant stories from her experience, illustrating how living faithfully in messy places can transcend the confines of traditional church structures. From relinquishing buildings to fostering genuine community, Erin recounts how choosing presence brought profound support and connection within the Dale community. Together, they explore how confronting discomfort and embracing vulnerability can transform lives, challenging listeners to rethink the church's role beyond its walls and how each of us can make a significant impact in our communities by simply being present.
