If you have a question about anything we have covered in the first two seasons of "In The Room With Communitas North America," send it via email to [email protected]. We will consider it for a question and response program we are planning for January. If you record your question as a 60-second or less audio clip and attach it to the email, we may use it as part of the podcast.

In this show, we shared a couple of resources that can help us think of how to experience Communion with God in new ways. One is Sacred Pathways: Discover Your Soul's Path to God by Gary Thomas. The other is When You Come Together: Challenging the Church to an Interactive Relationship with God by Amy Anderson.

Also, we plan to have our first Question and Response episode at the end of Season 2. If you have a question regarding anything discussed in this podcast's first two seasons, send an audio recording of your question to [email protected].

In Communitas, we believe that Community, Communion, and Mission are the essential functions of a faith community in whatever form it takes. In this episode, we bring back Dianna McCartan of Communitas Twin Cities to talk about how they have built community among people from diverse socio-economic backgrounds.

Often when we think of discipleship, we think of a list of classes and programs we offer people. Microchurches and missional faith communities offer the opportunity to do the life-on-life discipleship Jesus modeled. In this episode, we will talk with Greg Ellis about his recent experience leading his microchurch on a one-year journey reading through the Bible and how it affected the lives of the people involved.

A common question among missional and microchurch leaders is how to disciple children. In his new book, Righteous Brood, Hugh Halter shares great insights about raising stout-hearted world-changers from his years of experience as a missional church leader and the story of his own family. In this episode, we will talk with Hugh about making the mission of God a family story.

Note: Since Season 1 was originally recorded in 2022, we will begin catching up on Season 2 in a couple of days. Also, early in the show, Leon refers to the small amount of snow they received in November 2022. Little did he know that 2022 - 23 would become the snowiest winter in the history of many towns in Minnesota. It's funny to think of that comment in hindsight.
