Systematically Episode 02 - The One about the Church and Communities
In this episode, we preview our first guest-introduction question and Jon tells a truly embarrassing story about having a rat-tail as a grown man. Then we dive into a discussion of how to think about the relationship between clergy and lay people, the institution and the community, and between the present and the eschatological realizations of the Church. Brian leads us off with reference to Joe Komonchak's lecture, *Who Are The Church*, before Ryan takes us on a tour of Robert Doran's *Theology and the Dialectics of History* to help us introduce some more general notions of how communities develop, sustain themselves, and sometimes break down. Towards the end, we consider how to make sense of the special status of the Church vis-a-vis its mission in history and how to think about instances where the Church seems corrupted by the very thing it is meant to address in society at large. Robyn shares her Treasures Old and New and then we say goodbye! Thanks for listening.
