Listen Later

Life in the church is a complex reality.  

The Church is what it will become, yet it also has a here and not yet reality.

Acknowledging the tensions within, Beth, Mark & Tara Beth explore the coexistence of brokenness and Christ's presence in the Church. The discussion delves into the impact of sin, addressing the significant pain experienced, especially by church leaders. Despite the struggles, the hosts emphasize the transformative power of holiness manifesting in ordinary acts of goodness.

Discussion Questions:
