How can our communities learn to follow Jesus in a way that is within, but not defined by, our surrounding culture?

In this episode, Dr. Gerald Sittser draws from the history of the early church to explore how the Jesus movement grew — slowly, relationally, and often in the margins. He reflects on the role of the catechumenate and the long, patient work of communities that learned how to follow Jesus in an opposing culture. This teaching offers a historical and deeply practical vision of formation, inviting us to consider what we are building and whether it can endure beyond the conditions that currently support it.

This session was held at the Practicing the Way Pastor Conference in Portland, Oregon, in 2023.
