What Even Is Church And Why Does It Still Matter? | Maria Ruegsegger

from Gritty Gospel · host Sydney Green

What even is the local church? Why does it matter? How do you pick one? How much do your preferences play a role in picking a church? No church-hurt bashing. No pretending it's simple. Just two women who care about the local church enough to take it seriously. Maria Ruegsegger and I met through our local church and that's exactly why this conversation felt worth having. Because when you actually love something, you ask the hard questions about it. This is Gritty Gospel where we are standing on The Rock and still learning the ropes. New episodes every other Monday. Vlog with Meghan Lambert 7.20.26.

Women with Dyslexia Podcast: Living the Gospel with Power Hope B This podcast is designed for women with dyslexia who believe that God can do something new. The Apostle Paul says that we are transformed by renewing our minds to do what pleases the LORD, which is His will. When our minds are renewed (neuroscientists call this neuroplasticity), we are transformed. This podcast will contain short biblical messages designed to replace our old negative thinking with the truth found in God’s word. It is devoted to encouraging and inspiring adult women with dyslexia by listening to biblical truths that will uplift and challenge them to find a place for dyslexia in their lives and let Christ take center stage of their lives. To benefit from these short yet powerful messages, I recommend making these podcasts part of your morning and evening time with the Lord. Thank you for joining me.
