Community-as-Family with Bronwyn Lea
Manage episode 266139005 series 2734862
Christian community is – what? A group of friends? An encouraging place to belong? Hopefully – yes. But there’s a more foundational image the New Testament wants us to see. We are to see each other as family. And that’s not just a fancy way of saying “really close”, it’s a fundamental shift on how we see and think about life together. Peter Nittler chats with speaker, author, and pastor Bronwyn Lea about this concept of community-as-family as well as what to do and how to think when the grand promises of Christian community feel like they are far from reality. If you’ve ever been confused by, hurt by, frustrated by, or disappointed in Christian community, this conversation is for you. As a disclaimer, this conversation was had over Zoom, and it can make the audio a bit wonky. Repentance abounds!
Oh! And Bronwyn wrote a book. It’s awesome and you should buy it! Beyond Awkward Side Hugs.
