What if churches saw their buildings not just as Sunday gathering spaces but as anchors meant to foster the wellbeing of their communities? This episode explores how churches can meaningfully engage with housing justice by reimagining their relationship to land, property, and neighborhood.
In this thought-provoking episode, we examine the contradiction between vast church properties standing mostly empty while housing crises unfold at their doorsteps. Through conversations with experts like Ryan VerWys and Jonathan Rich, we explore how churches can leverage their resources to address housing needs without abandoning their spiritual mission. The episode challenges us to consider what it means to be truly rooted in place and how that rootedness connects to community flourishing.
Learn how churches are reimagining their properties to create meaningful impact in their neighborhoods.
