Keith has pastored for 16 years in the local church and serves as the Eastern Baptist Association Director of Missions in Maryland/Delaware.

Last week we talked about being Raised by God to stay in the church, and this week we are exploring what it looks like when you have left, are looking to leave, but want to hold onto Jesus. What does it look like in the Wilderness? Jenai Auman leads the Wilderness Forum to build community for those who have left after spiritual abuse and are navigating spiritual and religious trauma. We sit to talk about how the internet has helped to make space to belong when the physical church is still hard to be a part of. Find your hosts on Twitter!

Today we talk to Natalie Runion, of Raised to Stay, about what it means to stay in the church, in the midst of really hard times, and that whole deconstruction thing. We chat about what the church might learn from the spaces out in the world that are offering the things we sell, and many times we don't deliver on. Raised To Stay is for those who have been both called and crushed, loved and sometimes left, welcomed and wounded by the Church yet the anointing keeps them holding on. Pressing in. Jump in.

We know the internet is full of trolls and people looking for laughs, but is there a place for that type of humor in Christian spaces, or as part of Christian witness?
