Summary
What happens when traditions become more important than truth? In this episode of The Dialog, we unpack one of Christianity's biggest questions: What is the Church actually supposed to be? From house churches to megachurches, traditions to biblical principles, we explore why every generation wrestles with church models—and why Jesus may have been after something much deeper than methods. Along the way, we discuss greatness, God's glory, legalism, the Pharisees, generational change, and why distinguishing preferences from principles could completely transform how we view the Church. If you've ever wondered whether we've confused tradition with truth, this conversation is for you.
