This episode gives you a glance behind the scenes to our one of our online gatherings of the Dwellings Cohort. Francis Chan is the bestselling author of Crazy Love, Forgotten God, and Letters to the Church, and leads a house church movement in San Francisco. He inspires us all with his recent growing appetite to devour the Scriptures, reminding us that a reading of the Word of God from an unskilled orator might just change us more than any carefully crafted sermon that didn't center on Scripture. He goes on to answer some questions from cohort participants such as: How should we invite the participation of people that are more reserved? When we talk about everyone participating, where does leadership come into play? And how do smaller communities multiply well?  You don't want to miss this inspiring conversation.
