Doing Church Together

by | Nov 4, 2020

“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, I am there among them.”

–Matthew 18:20

Episode Overview:

What does it mean for a church to be gathered in the name of Jesus? What is at the center of a church’s gathering and agreement? Are there things about which we need to agree? Are there things on which we can disagree?

Race and racism make these hard questions even harder in our local churches. In this episode, Austin and Isaac talk through some different hypothetical scenarios and encourage listeners to pray for wisdom.

  • United? We Pray

    United? We Pray is a ministry to help Christians pray and think about racial strife. We want to encourage Christians amid the strife to rely upon God in prayer. So our prayers can be informed, we strive to learn and write about race, racism and its effects, and theology. We aim to be biblical, beneficial, and clear in all our efforts. While we’re burdened for all racial strife, we focus on racial strife between Christians because of the unique privilege and stewardship God has given his people: to bear witness to Him and to love all people, especially one another (Gal. 6:10).
