Episode049: Raised to Stay | Natalie Runion
Manage episode 324896988 series 3289778
Many people are leaving the Church for a variety of reasons: Church hurt, apathy, busy schedules, lack of gospel-centeredness in the church, and more. As a pastor's kid turned pastor, Natalie Runion felt herself questioning if she should stay in the church, too. God specifically told her that she was "raised to stay", so she did. Through speaking, podcasting, writing, and her Instagram account, she's encouraging others to stay as well. In this episode, we talk about why it's important to stay in the church, the impact of living in community, and the way God meets us where we are. We acknowledge the pain that comes from living in community, and the importance of sticking it out, even when it's hard. Take a listen, and then go follow Natalie on Instagram and Facebook, join the Raised to Stay community on Facebook, and connect more at raisedtostay.com.
