Throughout 2022, we will have special conversations with guests who are helping us celebrate our 200th anniversary as a church. Today, we sit down with Dr. Lonette Berg and Elizabeth Wells. They are helping us update our Siloam history book. In doing so, they are helping us remember: both the distant past and not so distant. We discuss why this endeavor is worthy and why we all should be a part of it.

Correction: Pastor Josh mentioned a video of Walmart on the metaverse. While it is true Walmart is preparing to have a prominent presence on the metaverse, the video he mentioned was actually from 2017 and thus not an accurate representation of what the Walmart experience on the metaverse will be like.

Is physically being in church THAT important? In the digital age where podcast, livestreams, and your favorite worship music is available at a click, why go through the effort to show up and deal with other imperfect, messy people? Pastors John Nicholson and Josh Watford discuss why this is vital to our Christian growth and mission to the world.
