Pocket Pulpit - 035 - Church In The Wild ft. Jenai Auman
play

06/01/22 • 72 min

Last week we talked about being Raised by God to stay in the church, and this week we are exploring what it looks like when you have left, are looking to leave, but want to hold onto Jesus. What does it look like in the Wilderness? Jenai Auman leads the Wilderness Forum to build community for those who have left after spiritual abuse and are navigating spiritual and religious trauma. We sit to talk about how the internet has helped to make space to belong when the physical church is still hard to be a part of. Find your hosts on Twitter!

What do you do when your words go viral, and are constantly being screenshot, quote-tweeted, and shared across the social media platforms - reaching audiences you didn't know and now have no control over?
We talk about this and pastors speaking intentionally on the Internet with pastor and blogger Benjamin Cremer. Buckle up, it's a good one.

What is Rise? Why is Rise? We sit down with Holly Stallcup and chat about so many things including, but not limited to, why the elevator pitch doesn't work for Rise. How Rise subverts power structures, and how the way the world treats money helps the Church understand how they should look to have conversations around money, giving, and generosity. Here's part two!
