June 22, 2023 Episode #035: Beauty Will Save the World, Part Ten - Communities of Delight with Rev. Dr. Mark Clavier, Part 2
Welcome back to The Wayside Podcast!

In the episode, we continue our conversation with Rev. Dr. Mark Clavier from last week. Last week, we identified the problem keeping us from embracing the beauty of Christ: the religion of consumerism.

To lead us toward the solution to this problem, Rev. Clavier helps us envision the Church’s call to be a community of delight in a consumeristic world. And without a doubt, our embrace of the beautiful and good can help us live into the church’s unique role in the world as the very household of God.

Be sure to check out last week's episode (#034) in case you missed it.

Welcome back to The Wayside Podcast!

For the final two episodes in our "Beauty Will Save the World" series, Wesley and Ryan spoke with Rev. Dr. Mark Clavier about practical ways that individuals , communities, and churches are embracing this call to share the beauty of Christ with the world. Our guest today has a stark message about the consumeristic world we live in, but also a delightful vision of the church’s role in our day and time.

Rev. Clavier is an American who is currently serving in Wales. He is juggling a few roles as the vicar of St Mary’s Church in Brecon, while also being the canon theologian to the Diocese of Swansea and Brecon and he’s the Chaplain to the Bishop.
