Episode Synopsis

What does it really take to build authentic community where people actually belong? In this honest conversation, Peter, Josh, and Malissa explore the beautiful mess of real relationships—from opening your gate to neighbors who don't look like you, to sharing Red Bull spritzers with guarded teenagers, to navigating church hurt and disagreements without losing each other. They get real about why community is both essential and terrifying, why trauma makes us burn bridges for safety, and what it looks like to create spaces where broken hearts can heal. Sometimes the most profound connections happen not in church buildings, but around kitchen tables and convenience store counters, one vulnerable conversation at a time.
