As weeks turn into months of the Coronavirus pandemic, we have many options in how we spend our time while under stay-at-home orders and quarantine. Some are Netflix and chilling, while others are using this time to learn new skills or take on begin new projects.
I've been focusing my time in contemplation, conversation, and recalibrating my perspective of many things. Embracing that notion, I've spent time in conversation with many of my virtual friends. These conversations have centered around deconstruction and reconstruction of certain assumptions about faith and church.
With that in mind, we'll be discussing different incorrect assumptions of modern-day Christianity concerning leadership, hierarchy, and prayer. Much of this misunderstanding comes from the sheep and shepherd parables and analogies from the Bible. It's amusing that pastors see themselves as shepherds of a flock when we're all just sheep. There's only one shepherd and he's not a celebrity pastor or author. We're all just sheep and that's okay.
Come along for the ride as we skewer through life, culture, and spirituality in the face of a changing world.
