August 23, 2024

In this episode of the Jesus Collective podcast, we sit with Dr. Mike O'Shea, Lead Pastor at Waterville Community Church and author of "All The Way Down: Rebuilding Christian Faith from the Rubble of Evangelicalism." Dr. O'Shea shares his journey from working in an international Evangelical mission organization to becoming a pastor helping people reimagine their faith.


Drawing from his book and personal experiences, Dr. O'Shea discusses the challenges many face with traditional evangelical approaches to the Bible and faith. He explores what it means to "reimagine" our understanding of Scripture and how viewing God through the lens of Jesus can transform our approach to faith.


This episode delves into practical advice for Christians feeling lost in the "rubble of evangelicalism," offering insights on rebuilding a more authentic and Jesus-centered faith. Dr. O'Shea also addresses how church leaders can guide congregations through reimagining and rebuilding.
