About this listen

We explore how the feeling of not belonging in church affects believers and why Christ's original mission was about radical inclusion, not creating more barriers.

• Churches often segregate along racial, socioeconomic, worship style, and theological lines
• Many people feel adrift without mentorship because they don't remind church leaders of themselves
• Christ's harshest criticism was for those who used religious law to create social hierarchies
• The disciples themselves represent our imperfections - they were jealous, doubtful, and weak in faith
• No human has the power to determine your salvation or acceptance by God
• Jesus specifically came for those who need him most - the outcast, struggling and imperfect
• Building a community for those who feel excluded from traditional church settings

Share in the comments what makes you feel like you don't belong in church, and let's create a space where everyone is welcome regardless of background or struggles.
