In this episode, hosts Peter, Josh, and Malissa discuss their conversation with theologian Dr. Jerry Sittser. They explore how monasteries historically served their communities rather than existing in isolation, examine the relationship between church and state, and discuss how the church's true power comes from the Holy Spirit rather than political influence. The hosts reflect on what renewal looks like today—emphasizing local community engagement over large-scale metrics—and highlight the importance of mentoring and empowering others. They conclude by connecting these themes to stewarding our experiences for others' benefit, much like the New Testament letters compiled wisdom to help believers flourish.
