I Come to the Garden Alone?

The title for today’s episode comes from a 20th century hymn. That hymn is illustrative of the common mindset in the evangelical church–that the real stuff of the Christian life happens when we are alone. Is that what the New Testament teaches? How is it that we grow in the faith? How is it that we become mature in Christ? Jon and Justin consider these questions and discuss how the Christian life is inherently corporate, how devotion is church-shaped, and how the corporate realities of the gathered church drive our private lives.
