Episode 8: relationships & worship - what is worship and how does worship uniquely impact our relationships and communities
 
Kristin interviews John Brown University's Director of Worship Arts & Pastoral Care to hear his story and have a conversation about what worship is and how worship allows us to press into healthy relationships, how worship impacts our communities, and what it means to be a pastoral presence in our relationships even as people that are not professional pastors.

Discussion questions for reflection with your friends:

  • What comes to mind when you think of worship, especially in the context of the definition in the podcast?
  • Do you think we need community, why or why not?
  • If you have a relationship with Christ, how if at all have you seen that impact your relationships?
  • How if at all does worship draw us closer to people we are in community with?
  • In light of this conversation, what is a way you can seek to be more intentional and present with the people you are around?
