Each year, the Gospel reading for the Sunday after Easter is the story of “doubting Thomas.” The other readings, however, emphasize living in a community. Jonathan and Seth discuss why living in community can be so formative, why communities matter, and what the contemporary church might learn from the early Jesus-following movement.

They discuss a framework called “The Life Cycle and Stages of Congregation Development” by George Bullard, which can be found here.
