We know how to go to church (i.e., the building), but we struggle to be the church (i.e., the people of God on the move). How might we rethink church as a network of distributed communities living Jesus’s Way of Love? We’ve focused “being church” on gathering in consecrated buildings for rituals led by consecrated people. Now that is disrupted--and will likely be so for some time. What does it mean for the church to be dispersed across our cities, towns, and villages in local neighborhoods and homes? How can we equip and empower people to be church in their homes, local places and daily lives? What might we learn about how to rethink church as a network of distributed micro-communities living Jesus’s Way of Love in relationship with their neighbors? With guests Michael Beck, director of re-missioning for Fresh Expressions US and co-pastor of Wildwood United Methodist Church in Wildwood Florida, and Katie Nakamura Rengers, staff officer for church planting, The Episcopal Church, and former vicar of The Abbey in Birmingham, Alabama.
