April 09, 2023 Ethics & Ecclesia Pt. 4 - How Can We Rediscover the Beauty of Communion?
Join Pierce and Diana in this episode as they dive into 1 Corinthians and John 6 to traverse the Biblical origins of communion. They explore how the early Church practiced communion, what Jesus taught about it, and how we might want to engage in the Lord's Supper today.
Communion is a gift of remembrance and offers layers of depth to our gatherings. Listen and be a part of asking what its purpose, meanings, and practical expressions have been. Then, join the conversation to consider how we can conform this part of our Christian (CHRIST-like) lives back to the pure blueprint given in Scripture.
Naked Church aims to give people biblical language for their experiences and encourages them to embrace humble obedience in their convictions.

April 02, 2023 Ethics & Ecclesia Pt. 3 - Embracing Unity in the Church Through Diversity
What does it mean for every member of the Body to be functioning at our gatherings and for us to show no partiality? Join Pierce and Diana in this episode as they talk about unity THROUGH diversity.
We have to do more than pay lip service to the idea of welcoming diversity. It’s only through our efforts of embracing the diversity of God’s children that we experience the awe inspiring unity of the same Spirit working within and across us all. This is another vital ethic of being followers of the way.

March 22, 2023 Ethics & Ecclesia Pt. 2 - Are Members of the Church REALLY Equal?
Join Pierce and Diana as they dig into the Bible to see what God has to say about favoritism within the Body. God claims to show no partiality, and He commands us to do the same. What would that approach to our relationships and practices look like if we applied them to our gatherings?

March 15, 2023 Ethics & Ecclesia Pt. 2 - Should Every Person Participate in the Church?
For this episode, Pierce and Diana want to start a series on the ethics of church practices, but they have to answer a very important question before they can move forward.
Who is the church actually for? The way the gathering is prepared, the practices and expressions it has, and the people we invite or tailor our message toward will all be dependent upon the answer to this question. And this question has many answers depending on who you ask.
Journey with Pierce and Diana through this episode of Naked Church as they wade through what they’ve heard from Christian leaders across the world and what they’ve found in the Bible. To have a discussion around ethical church practices, we must first understand what God has given. In a word, the “ecclesia.”
