If I sound too hyped in this episode it was because I was so thrilled to process with my co-host Liz Edrington. Liz and I discuss how anxiety, loneliness, disconnection or shame should not be avoided. Avoidance only perpetuates the most difficult aspects of this life.
Why is community important for the Christian life? Quite simply, our need for community is in our DNA. We were created to need other believers to know us and to be known by us. “It’s in relationship we are wounded and in relationship we are healed.”
The Holy Spirit's healing happens in the body of Christ by way of trusted truth tellers who know us and are known by us.
