Congregation Check-In: Andrew Reimers
Our favorite Johnny Cash impersonator pops in on a call to become our first ever RETURNING Meet Your Congregation guest.Andrew's first appearance on the podcast resulted in an unpredictable number of conversations with all sorts of people--some grateful and impressed by Andrew's outspoken allyship, and some less inclusive believers who disapprove of his openly affirming stance.This episode was a really cool opportunity for the whole congregation to share with Andrew in his evolving relationships with the diverse individuals and groups in his life (and, unfortunately, some who simply are not in his life any more).@revolutionchurchmn@jaybakker@revolutioncaleb@postxianpodcasting Hosted on Acast.
