What We Mean When We Talk About … Faithful Living – No Personal Holiness Without Social Holiness: Perspectives FUMCSD Pastors Podcast (S3E4) (Video)

What should faithful living look like for today’s Christian? That’s what First UMC of San Diego pastors Revs. Hannah Ka and Brittany Juliette Hanlin discuss in this episode of Perspectives FUMCSD Pastors Podcast.

The digital Bible study is part of an ongoing conversation of the pastors as they answer the question “What We Really Mean When We Talk About…” from their progressive theological lens.

Drawing from John 13:34-35 and the theological practices of the father of Methodism – John Wesley – the two females argue that it’s not enough to simply show up at church each week. As Christians, we need to apply Sunday learnings to our everyday living in how we show up in our relationship with God and those around us.

But is it really as simple as that sounds? Be sure to watch or listen to find out. Then continue the conversation with others through our in-person Convergence group or by joining our online community at patreon.com/fumcsd.

Here are the discussion questions for this episode:

1. How has Jesus loved you? How does that love influence the way you love others?
2. Why does Jesus say love is the thing that proves we’re his followers? 
3. Can you really have a private faith without it showing up in how you treat people?
