We all know people who have left the church. This can be painful for those who believe and stay, especially when the ones leaving did not feel loved, fed, or welcomed in the church. In this episode, we discuss some pain points that thwart the saving mission of Jesus and cause grief within the Body. In order to move forward, a reckoning is needed...and an honest owning-up to our complicity in these failures. The goal is to repent, lament, and then move forward - as we strive anew towards fidelity to our true identity as the church of Jesus called to make disciples and reach the lost.
