    14. Communion by Jean Vanier *Disclaimer

    I provide a disclaimer at the beginning of this episode that I hope you listen to before skipping it. We are all sinful, we all need to return to the Way Jesus calls us to. What does communion look like, and how might we walk with others into communion? This season, I'm exploring the book "Called to Community," edited by Charles E. Moore. Throughout this year-long study, I will work through what it means to live intentionally with others. The book covers a wide range of topics, authors, and ideas, that exemplify the diversity of communities.
