Season 3 Theme - One Virtual Road Trip, to Answer One Big Question, told as One Continuous Narrative Arc
Season 3 Focus - To answer one primary question, "How do we effectively live as a collective church body in today's world in tension?"
In this episode, the road trip transitions from virtual to reality! A World in Tension host, Neil Placer and his family, go visit a home church in Gallatin, TN. They go to explore the 'We are Church' model, pioneered by the innovative Francis Chan in 2014. The model is based on the original church construct found in the Bible's book of Acts. Over the last ten years the model has gained traction and has spread to various locations across the globe.
We are on a quest to see how the lessons we have learned in Season 3 are being realized and exemplified by this local church body. We walk you through the 3-part church experience that is fundamental to the 'We Are Church' model. Our day begins with Bible study and worship, transitions to an informal fellowship over lunch, and culminates with an outreach to the local community.
Come join us as we unpack our day together at “We are Church’ and explore how the church seeks to function with greater intentionality and focus. We examine how this compares to a traditional church model and what we may be able to learn from it.
