Belonging Without Borders: Church, Tribalism, and the True Call to Community
In an age where identity feels like a hyperbolic battleground, how can churches be places of belonging instead of barriers? In this episode, Justin and Young Yi talk through the tensions of unity and difference, exploring how faith communities can resist the pull of tribalism without compromising conviction.
From social identity theory to Scripture, they unpack how political affiliations and cultural camps often overshadow the gospel, how inadvertent echo chambers form, and why the authority of Christ is best expressed through grace, not dominance. With honesty and insight, Justin and Young offer a vision of community where kindness leads to repentance, drawing lines doesn't mean drawing swords, and turning neighbors into friends becomes the norm, not the exception.
If you’re feeling the strain between conviction and compassion, this conversation might be worth your time.
