Logos Podcast Christ Without the Church? [Ep. 86]
Like some of our episodes in the past, this one is a bit different. This episode comes from a talk Joey gave to an Alpha group at the Church he is currently serving. Alpha is, as is on their website, "an evangelistic course which seeks to introduce the basics of the Christian faith through a series of talks and discussions. It is described by its organizer's as "an opportunity to explore the meaning of life"." Thus, Alpha is comprised of people from all walks of life, from Christian to Buddhist to Atheist.
Joey is fortunate to have been walking and serving this group over the past several weeks. As the sessions came to a close, however, Joey was asked to close off the meetings by giving a talk on the culminating topic, namely to discuss the Church.
The particular question he tapped into was: what is the Church? Is the Church a mere intuition? Did it have "a founder"? What about the apostolic succession? Did Christ found really found a Church? Aren't we all 'the Church'? Surely a personal relationship with Him is sufficient? These questions and more, Joey dives into!
Tune in, enjoy, and we hope that Joey's talk illuminates you all!
God Bless and Merry Christmas!
