What Community Really Means (interMISSION 2025 Reflection Series)

Tidings Magazine Season 8 Episode 3

Some of the most life-giving moments at interMISSION 2025 didn’t happen on the stage — they happened in the margins. Around coffee tables. During slow hallway walks. In the kind of conversations where no one’s rushing to the next thing.

In this episode, we explore the sacred, Spirit-led connections that form when women choose to be fully present with each other — not just polite, but honest; not just acquaintances, but sisters in Christ. Through stories from interMISSION, Scripture reflections, and practical next steps, we’ll uncover how genuine community is built, why it matters, and how to carry it home.

If you’ve ever longed for deeper friendships, richer conversations, and a sense of belonging that goes beyond Sunday hellos, this conversation is for you.

Want to practice becoming a more relaxed listener?  Check out Listening Hearts, a group resource that will create opportunities where it feels natural to talk about your personal walk with God, minister to one another through listening, and draw closer to God through the use of spiritual practices.
