Welcome to season 7 of Being Known Podcast were we are continually looking at what it means to be truly known. This season we are exploring confessional communities.\n\xa0\nThere are multiple forces in play that are part of what forms us. That is no different in the confessional community. What are the realities that we encounter in confessional communities that set them apart from other relational and social encounters\u2014and, as a result, then set us apart to be formed into the image of Jesus.\n\xa0\nJoin Curt and Pepper as they explore the various features of a confessional community that, given their differences and their interactions with each other enable us, like a beautiful symphony, to become more than the sum of our parts.\n\xa0\n. . . .\nEpisode Links and References\nGenesis 1:26-27\nPsalm 31:8\nLuke 3:22\nArtistic offering - "Hope is a Thing with Feathers" poem by Emily Dickinson\nThe Center for Being Known\nNew Story Behavioral Health\n\xa0\n. . . . .\nSpecial Thanks for our Season Sponsor - Compassion International\nThe world is currently facing a devastating global food crisis caused from numerous variables: the war in Ukraine, fertilizer shortages, effects of COVID-19, and extreme weather, just to name a few.
