Ways Change
Does it ever change?
Just because it’s always been done a certain way, doesn’t ever mean that the way can’t change. It just take courage. It takes standing up, and speaking up to power, and demanding something better.
Ryan Phipps is the Senior Minister at Church In Bethesda.
Raised in the church, becoming a pastor was the one thing Ryan vowed he would never do. After spending many years away from faith, he found that for all of its flaws, the church can still occupy a unique place of good in the world if it is willing to evolve with reason and empathy.
Ryan has a special place in his heart for those who have been damaged or disillusioned by the church, and longs to lead those within it toward a more just and generous expression of itself.
