Ep 03: Our Journey With Church

Jeremy + Audrey Roloff
About this episode

Let’s talk about church  ⛪ We have experienced many versions of the Christian church, and have openly shared them over the years. In our culture right now, there is a lot of sentiment around church; from church hurt, to frustrations, to people leaving church and not attending anymore. 

Over the last few years, we have found ourselves wrestling with the gap of what church should be like and what church is actually like. It has been a journey but we are landing on solid ground. 🥾

Our hope is that this conversation inspires conversations within your home, family, and marriage about being a follower of Jesus and what being part of the body of Christ means for you. 

Ps - have you left the podcast a review yet? We are so thankful for YOU, our listeners. And we want to hear what you love about the show. So take a moment to leave a review on your podcast app. It means the world to us ♥️

In this episode we talk about: 

  • Our individual backgrounds in church 
  • Letting go of expecting things from the church you can only get from walking with Jesus 
  • Why you shouldn’t outsource your spiritual walk to the church
  • Moving from criticism to grace when it comes to your perspective of the church
