Episode 84 - When Church Structures Rot

  • サマリー

  • Why do many historic church institutions often end up undermining the very reason they are meant to exist? There have been many movements and institutions in the history of the Church. Some last longer than others. But over time, they always become more complex, more unwieldy, more difficult to “manage”. Why do the inheritors of incredible legacies of vibrant Christian faith often act so differently from those who left the legacy itself? What is behind the desire of a leader or group to protect an institution’s traditions, processes, and reputation at the expense of their Biblical and missional principles? What makes Christian institutions especially prone to “ossification”? How can churches and movements ensure they don’t allow their pre-existing expectations and challenges to deceive them in how they discern the shape of their future without cutting themselves off from their past? Join Andy and Aaron as they discuss all this and more on the latest episode of Pod of the Gaps. RESOURCES MENTIONED ... V. Raymond Edman, 'They Found the Secret' (Zondervan, 1984) PLEASE HELP POD OF THE GAPS Pod of the Gaps needs your help to keep going!
