Building Solidarity

About this episode

The episode discusses how to build a spiritual community based on the teachings of 1 Peter, focusing on inclusivity and support during trials.

Scripture: 1 Peter 2:2-10 The first letter of Peter calls the early church to build themselves upon Christ as the chief cornerstone: living stones becoming a community and spiritual temple. But building on that “stone that was rejected” may cause us to think about how we build. How can we form a spiritual community strong enough to be a shelter for those in times of trial and open enough that our walls do not cast out or isolate those we are most called to love and welcome?
