Building Bridges When You'd Rather Build Walls
About this episode
The hosts discuss the importance of building bridges over walls in a church context, reflecting on a sermon and various community topics.
Where Dave, Whitney, and Keelea dig into Brian's sermon on Revelation's first church—the one that got the doctrine right but lost their first love. They explore what it means to build bridges instead of walls, why moral renovation isn't the same as relational revelation, and how a church can be healthy precisely because it doesn't avoid conflict Between celebrating Baby Theo's arrival, processing upcoming staff transitions, and previewing Serve Sunday, they tackle the beautiful inefficiency of God's plan to use imperfect people to build His kingdom. Plus: an impassioned defense of Raising Cane's leadership structure and the revelation that soda taste tests are shockingly difficult.
