What Happened to Formation in the Church? | Steve Porter

If the church is meant to form people into the likeness of Jesus, why does it feel like we have to bring formation back?In this conversation with Dr. Steve Porter, we explore what the church is actually meant to do and how that vision has become obscured over time. We talk about the purpose of the church, the subtle ways formation gets replaced by activity, and how our understanding of salvation shapes the life of transformation.We also discuss the role of community and how formation unfolds in everyday life beyond Sunday gatherings.This conversation looks at how we got here, makes sense of where we are now, and invites us to rediscover what the church is meant to be.
