À propos de cet audio

So often, we find ourselves sitting next to people in church—people with fascinating stories and incredible expertise—and yet we miss the chance to truly know them. What if we slowed down and took the time to hear how each of us spends our days, how we wrestle with life, and how God is working in our stories?

Join us as we journey into the lives of everyday folks from The Village Church here in Tucson, Arizona. These are people just like you, who are willing to open up and share their lives. Through honest conversations, we’ll tackle big ideas and practical ways to engage our communities, helping one another see what it looks like to live out our faith in tangible ways.

We’ll explore topics like race, disability, advocacy, and faith, inviting guests to share their unique perspectives and skills. Together, we’ll look for ways to use what we’ve been given to connect, serve, and ultimately bring healing to our city.

    In this episode of the Healing the City podcast, Pastor Mark and Pastor Eric sit down to talk about what it actually means to belong. They explore how the Village understands membership, not as signing a line or joining a club, but as stepping into responsibility, stability, and shared life.

    Drawing from the Village’s neo-monastic approach, they reflect on how true belonging always demands something of us: showing up, carrying one another’s burdens, and submitting ourselves to a larger story. This isn’t about chasing ideal community; it’s about committing to walk with real people, in all their beauty and brokenness, and letting that shape us into something stronger and more whole.
