Summary

In this episode @IzziRay joins us again to discuss the topic of leaving the church. A couple years ago, John Pavlovitz, a pastor located in North Carolina, posted a blog called, "Church, Here’s Why People Are Leaving You. Part 1". Today we discuss why we even try. After all of this talk about our failing efforts, why keep doing it? We feel there is an alternative out there. And we're trying to find it. Looking forward to you thoughts below. Enjoy!
