How Did We Get Here? (Mini Episode)

11/22/23 • 11 min

This is a completely optional bonus mini episode about the past few years here at the Community Church, intended to provide some context about our current situation (hint: we don't actually have a church building at the moment), how we got there (some of you may remember the events of 2020, for instance), and how we are moving forward (with radical love, courage and trust). If you're unfamiliar with Community Church, or if you find yourself wondering where this whole Disrupt Church conversation is coming from, this is a great place to start!

What Are We Doing Here?

Welcome to the Disrupt Church Podcast! We're launching straight in to the conversation. In this episode, Rev. Peggy reflects on the moment that inspired her to change a liturgy that has been in use for over 200 years. We start out on the stoop of the Community Church offices in midtown Manhattan, inviting you to listen in on a conversation between two friends, colleagues (one a Senior Minister and one a Director of Religious Education), and collaborators, to hear about how we are thinking about and approaching big questions about our mission and model, and to think about how this might apply to you and your congregation. Thanks for listening!
