IBC Podcast

How does the image of a body impact how I think about church? Can I be a member, but still do my own thing? How could my actions really make that much of a difference to other people? On this episode we talk about being intimately interrelated and the need to consider others when you're making your decisions.

Okay. A genuine community where people are real sounds great... until their sin starts affecting me. What do I do when it's no longer new and fun and there's disappointment and pain involved in the community. Does that mean there's something wrong with the community? On this episode Nathan and Theo talk about the part of Our Covenant where we said we'd stick it out with each other.

What does it take to have real community? Listen to this episode as Nathan and Theo kick that around and encourage all of us to more openness, authenticity, and transparency because of the safety of the gospel.

So do we only care about sharing the gospel? How does the gospel inform our lives in the city where human needs are in our face? Does this make us social justice warriors? On this episode listen to Nathan and Theo explain the line in our Covenant about loving our neighbors.

We've been set apart to save, not to stay to ourselves. Christians evangelize! This next piece of Our Church Covenant makes explicit that we are going to be trying to advance the cause of the gospel. Join Theo, Nathan, Janice, and Cal on this episode as they talk about the ultimate mission of the church.

What does it mean to live a holy life? And how does being a covenanted member of the church help you do that? Listen in on Pastors Nathan and Theo talking about the next part of Our Church Covenant about being distinct amidst a world of sin.

We're back for a third season. This season we'll be going through Our Church Covenant and talking about what it means to be a Christian and how that's connected to being in the church. Listen to Pastors Nathan and Theo talk about the introduction to the IBC Covenant.

Where do churches come from? Do giant storks drop them off to people who pray? It turns out... it's a little different than that. To find out how it happens and how you could be a part of the gospel spreading all across Chicago, listen as I chat with Pastor Nathan about Church Planting.
