Fall Study: Introduction and Invite

Five Misadventures in the Christian Life

September 22, 2020 • David Smith, Eric Lehman

Do you long for something more in your relationship with God? While our journey with Christ starts out well intentioned, many get lost in spiritual misadventure – beliefs and practices that sound good, but instead lead into a cul-de-sac, leaving us spiritually apathetic, tired, cynical, or even burned out. Is that you?

This Fall Study podcast series complements a new 6-week study, designed for those looking for a spiritual refresh. It provides both hope and a roadmap for reimagining a transforming friendship with Christ. A chance to explore possibilities, spark desire, and get a taste of what ‘can be’.

This episode shares the need we see around us, as well as the opportunity in front of us. We share our passion to reach back and invite people off the sidelines and into the story. We hope you join us!
