  • But do we really need the church?

    But do we really need the church?
    Apr 23 2024
    "Maybe religion, for all of its faults, works a bit like a retaining wall to hold back the destabilizing pressure of American hyper-individualism, which threatens to swell and spill over in its absence.” So writes Derek Thompson in The Atlantic. In this episode, as part of the series on worship and formation, Ashley and Bryce discuss Thompson's article, trends in churchgoing, the role of technology, and what the church is for. Resources discussed: “The True Cost of the Churchgoing Bust” By Derek Thompson in The Atlantic Kirsten Sanders' substack series, including this article, "My First Advice Column" The Cartographers is a production of Willowbrae Institute.
