Healing the City
So often, we find ourselves sitting next to people in church—people with fascinating stories and incredible expertise—and yet we miss the chance to truly know them. What if we slowed down and took the time to hear how each of us spends our days, how we wrestle with life, and how God is working in our stories?
Join us as we journey into the lives of everyday folks from The Village Church here in Tucson, Arizona. These are people just like you, who are willing to open up and share their lives. Through honest conversations, we’ll tackle big ideas and practical ways to engage our communities, helping one another see what it looks like to live out our faith in tangible ways.
We’ll explore topics like race, disability, advocacy, and faith, inviting guests to share their unique perspectives and skills. Together, we’ll look for ways to use what we’ve been given to connect, serve, and ultimately bring healing to our city.
Healing the City
Radical Singleness
In this episode of Healing the City podcast, we explore the topic of singleness and the unique ways that single individuals can serve God. Hosted by Pastors Eric and Michael, they begin by discussing how single people can be the special forces of the church, given their greater availability and flexibility to devote time to serving God's kingdom.
The conversation touches on the challenges faced by single individuals, such as the feelings of loneliness that can arise from not having a partner or family, and the cultural stereotypes that sometimes portray them as second-class citizens. However, the hosts emphasize that Jesus had a special love for single individuals, and their status does not diminish their worth or importance in God's eyes.
Throughout the episode, the pastors skillfully navigate the complexities of singleness, offering listeners wisdom and insight that is both thought-provoking and empowering. By the end of the episode, listeners are left with a renewed appreciation for the beauty and power of singleness and its immense contribution to the church and the world.
