25: Rethinking the Ekklesia - with Eden Jersak

Author: David Goa April 25, 2024 Duration: 1:29:19
I am pleased to be joined by Pastor Eden Jersak for this on-going series of conversations on the Ekklesia. I am privileged to call Eden, and her husband Brad, friends and have spent many rich hours in conversation with them in their home in Abbotsford. Eden’s understanding of the church as a place of welcome, as a place where you can always add another leaf to the table of fellowship is striking.

In a world saturated with rapid takes and fleeting opinions, In Conversation with David Goa offers a different space. This podcast is a series of thoughtful dialogues where David Goa engages with a diverse range of voices-from artists and philosophers to community leaders and scholars. The discussions meander through the interconnected landscapes of religion, spirituality, arts, and culture, examining how these forces shape our personal lives and the broader society. You’ll hear conversations that are less about debate and more about exploration, delving into the symbols, stories, and creative expressions that form the bedrock of human experience. Each episode is a deep dive into the ideas that animate us, asking how ancient wisdom and contemporary creativity can inform a more reflective and meaningful life. The tone is conversational yet profound, inviting listeners into a genuine exchange of perspectives. It’s for anyone curious about the quiet undercurrents of culture and the sacred dimensions of everyday existence. Through these recorded conversations, the podcast builds a tapestry of insights, suggesting that the most vital questions about who we are and what we value are often found in the spaces between traditional categories. Join David Goa and his guests for a slow, considered look at the world we inhabit together.
