CENTRAL PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH: New Way podcast returns

Season nine features a conversation on faith deconstruction with The Christian Century’s Jon Mathieu

Season nine of the New Way podcast from 1001 New Worshiping Communities kicked off Thursday with the first of a two-part conversation with the community engagement editor of The Christian Century, Jon Mathieu.

Also, the pastor of new church Harbor Online — as its name implies, the community gathers not in person but only online — Mathieu talks with New Way host the Rev. Sara Hayden about Harbor’s post-evangelical and inclusive community.

On its website, Harbor Online describes itself as a community where “everyone belongs to each and to God” and “that every person who desires to belong does,” which Hayden asked Mathieu to flesh out.

“People desire to belong to one another and to love each other, so anyone who wants to should be able to participate in that in a Christian faith community,” Mathieu said. “We wanted to put that out front and center that no matter what you believe, no matter what baggage you have, if you want to be part of the community, you can be part of the community.”
