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, we explore how brain science enhances our understanding to build more meaningful Christian community, foster a healthy environment for spiritual maturity, and avoid the delusions of narcissism.

We have an engaging conversation with author Michel Hendricks about his book 'The Other Half of Church'. We explore how the brain works, common misconceptions most of us have about the brain, and how utilizing both halves of our brain can result in more effective and vibrant discipleship practices.

Hendricks offers practical advice that the listener can begin to apply immediately, both personally and in the context of a local church community. Come join us and we learn how to shift our focus towards a more whole-brained, joy filled, and community rich Christian life.
