The Pastor's Table

Is The Church Holy? | Hamartiology | PT 59

Listen Later

The Church is filled with tension. How does the brokenness of humanity found in the Church co-exist with being Christ’s presence in the world? 

Sin has ravaged the church. The pain and fallout have been significant, especially among church leaders. Yet, the church will always be the place where messy people interact and work out their salvation from sin.  Holiness often looks less spectacular and more ordinary acts of goodness. 

Discussion Questions: 

  1. Beth, Mark & Tara Beth wrestle through some lofty discussions about sin and the holiness of church. How do you wrestle through these discussions that they bring up in this episode? 
  2. Beth brings up that capitalism is often brought up and at times negatively intertwined into the church as a “product.” What ways can this be unhelpful to live in the Kingdom as God described?  
  3. In the context of the Church's inherent tension and brokenness due to the impact of sin, how can the community navigate the challenge of being Christ's presence in the world while acknowledging and addressing the significant pain and fallout among church leaders?
