CWD Episode 135: When Should You Leave Your Congregation?

We're starting a two-part (possibly three) discussion about leaving a congregation and searching for a new one. We can't cover every possible situation and we know there are lots of them. This video hopes to lay the groundwork and look at scriptures that address some common things related to congregations and their health. We also discuss personal relationships within a congregation and how that affects your spiritual growth. If you haven't ever had to leave a congregation or consider doing so - know that it isn't an easy choice for anyone. We don't want to oversimplify or downplay the impact this has on individuals, families, and the congregations involved. We do hope this helps us all become better congregations who care for each individual and seek to be the Church as Christ calls it to be. Several times you will hear us mention a desire to hear your stories. We really mean it. Please send us your thoughts and comments to help us better address this important subject. It may lead to us putting together a third video in this series to dig deeper on some specific situations.Scripture References: 1 Corinthians, Acts 14:23, Acts 9:26-29, Revelation 2:2-5, Acts 20:28-31, Revelation 3:3-5, Acts 15:36-41, 2 Timothy 4:11, Ephesians 6:4, Deuteronomy 6:4-6
