Church for Ordinary People with Darryl & Stephanie Answer
Description
Today’s episode is a conversation with Stephanie and Darryl Answer, who are faculty members at the Asset Based Community Development Institute at DePaul University, and founders of New Community Church in Kansas City, Missouri. New Community is a church that takes seriously the call to be the neighbor by highlighting and animating gifts, reimagining how the church thinks about money and power, and tending to their neighborhood’s relational capital.
Darryl and Stephanie truly practice what they preach and offer a vision for church rooted in place and profoundly aware of the presence of Jesus among neighbors. These two are such an inspiration to me and offer the church so much wisdom, and more importantly, permission to be the church in the particular places where God has called us to live and worship. I pray this is just the first of many conversations with Darryl and Stephanie Answer.
