One Right Church Mark Shaw with Scott Reavely

In this encore episode, Mark answers the two most common questions people ask him:  What made you stay? What made you leave?

Nobody likes to be rejected. It is also unhappy to be the person who does the rejecting. This week Mark talks about the unnecessary pain that everyone feels when someone leaves the one right church. Mark has had the unique experience of having been the person who rejects family members and has been rejected himself.

In this episode, Mark discusses the fear he experienced as he began to look for another church. He had been told he was in the "right church." How could the next church also be right? Did it need to be? Does every church think it is the right church?

In this episode, we talk about Mark's journey out of the Followers of Christ. As with most journeys, it was not a straight line. It took time and several difficult decisions.

Mark sees spiritual things, the church, and Christ differently than when he was younger. This episode tells the story of his journey of faith, which required him to change his mind and ultimately led him to step out of his church.

This is the episode that started it all. The podcast was almost called, "Don't Be Afraid to Ask Questions."
