Humans are made for community. We operate best when the tribe of which we are a part is aligned with our deepest values and desires. So it is with the With Collective. Hundreds of individuals and churches, who once wandered the wilderness, alone, have found one another and started journeying together. Whether it is Launchpad, our joint church starting initiative, or She Is Called, our vibrant women’s initiative, W/ is my place – post-evangelicals who value local church autonomy, vibrant contemporary worship, dynamic children’s programming and progressive theology. It is great to find fellow travelers on the journey who are committed to doing justice, loving kindness and walking humbly with God.
