You heard it hear

Compartmentalizing

Spiritual

Wholistic view point

Can I be separated into pieces? 

Can I dissect my soul?

If I break it all down into pieces, how do I put it back together to make it whole?

Wowowowow!

Go on the road with the Barracks!  We sat down with the attendees of Metropolitan Division's Young Adult Retreat and the special guests Katie and Mitch Luse to ask the question, "Holy Spirit, are you really welcome here?"  Tune in to hear from the Luses on how to hear the Holy Spirit, and ways we can know the Holy Spirit is welcome in our ministry.

Check out their ministry Connect Up- https://www.iconnectup.net/

More adventures in online chatting- listen in with Amanda and Kirsten to Kaia on the subject of marriage, hospitality, and finding a place in the local corps.

Remote recording shenanigans! 

Special guest Nate Irvine discusses self doubt in ministry... Doesn't everybody experience this?!

Everybody laughs a lot. Occasionally the discussion ends due to the laughter.

Whaaaaattttt

Amanda and Kiri moved!  Final moments as neighbors- tune in, sit down with us as we ramble chat through the episode. Two emotionally spent humans with microphones.

If you make it through the rambling, there are some slightly more serious moments regarding moving, saying goodbye, loss in general... 

For anyone paying attention, urban ministry is a hot topic in TSA.  Since the beginning of the movement, urban life has been the focus of the ministry. What does that mean today? How might that look tomorrow? Where is the territory headed? 

Listen in with Kiri and Amanda as three people who love cities talk about some possible answers to those questions. Stay tuned for more episodes on this topic! This is only, "scratching the surface," but we "guarantee" it is real talk.
