A Kingdom of Exiles.

WARNING: This episode talks about sexual abuse, racial discrimination and other topics that may be triggering for some folks. While Mid and Tim try to be sensitive they are reacting in real time to these topics and questions. Please listen with caution.

Today Mike Erre and Timothy Stafford explore community feedback and the definitions of harm and hospitality within societal contexts. They delve into the racial dynamics present in church experiences, emphasizing the importance of true hospitality that creates safe environments for the vulnerable. The conversation highlights the need for inclusivity, the significance of listening to diverse experiences, and the necessity of addressing real issues without the 'fluff' that often clouds discussions.

Further, Mike and Tim discuss the importance of ethnic reconciliation within the church, emphasizing that it is central to Paul's vision. They explore the church's role as a social justice entity, the complexities of navigating feelings of exile and belonging, and the critiques surrounding deconstruction in the context of church integrity. The dialogue highlights the need for fresh conversations about these issues, advocating for a church that reflects diversity and unity in Christ.

Then, they explore the concept of the Kingdom of God as a political entity, contrasting it with worldly kingdoms. They discuss the nature of Jesus' kingdom, emphasizing its unique power dynamics and the distinction between power over and power under. The conversation delves into the implications of political idolatry, the challenges of labeling nations as Christian, and the role of government versus the Kingdom of God. Ultimately, they highlight the importance of discernment in navigating these complex issues.
