Description

As some of you know, the King's Way Podcast is a product of King's Way Christian Church...but why is this church named that? Isn't it redundant to say "Christian" and "Church" in the same name? Other churches don't have both of those words in their name, and they're still Christians. Does King's Way draw from a history of specific churches or submit to a church government outside of the four walls of their local church?

Christian denominations can be really confusing, so in this episode, Trevor and Ryan start from scratch, explaining what a denomination even is, why there are so many, and what that means about King's Way specifically. There's a lot they left out, so if you'd like a part 2, comment and let us know!

Additionally, you can join the conversation by sharing your experience stumbling in to the world of Christian denominations or how a previous church of yours differed from ours!
