Nomad Podcast Jamie Arpin-Ricci - A Vulnerable Faith (N115)
Jamie Arpin-Ricci joins us on the latest leg of our Nomadic pilgrimage of hope. Jamie felt called to leave behind his comfortable middle class life and move to a high poverty and crime inner-city area. Obviously this presented many challenges, but none more so than being confronted by his own vulnerability. So we ask Jamie to reflect on what it means to make ourselves vulnerable before God and those around us, and how this can shape the community we're a part of.
"I began to recognise how easily by the colour of someones skin I would identify them as the target of mission, that they had something to receive and I had something to give.” - Jamie Arpin-Ricci
Interview starts at 5m 43s.
