Exploring how reframing sin and salvation as communal realities can transform our understanding of justice, community, and the mission of the church in today's world, Mike and Tim dive deep into the implications of being a community of justice and shalom while continuing their Exile Series.

Key Takeaways: • Sin and Salvation as Communal Concepts – Understanding the importance of viewing sin and salvation beyond individualism, emphasizing the corporate dimensions within the church. • The Role of the Church as New Humanity – Discussing Paul's metaphor of the body of Christ and how it calls us to eradicate hierarchies and promote justice within our communities. • Reevaluating Missions and the Great Commission – Critiquing traditional approaches to evangelism and missions, focusing on the communal nature of the gospel and the importance of healthy, mutual relationships. • Current Events and the Church's Response – Analyzing recent developments like anti-Christian bias task forces and Bible reading mandates, and how they align or conflict with Jesus' teachings on the church and state. • Upcoming Opportunities for Spiritual Community – Announcing the upcoming "Non-Ference" in Nashville for those feeling spiritually homeless, and "Pastoring as an Act of Resistance," a monthly gathering for ministry leaders.

Resources Mentioned: • Alan Kreider – The Patient Ferment of the Early Church • Tim Gombis – Faith Improvised podcast • Sky Jethani – Upcoming book on justice
