“What’s wrong with being just a normal church?” That’s the question at the center of Thomas Austin’s song, Normal Church.
In this episode I talked with Thomas Austin about the content of his song, some of the criticism he’s received for it, and what message he’s trying to convey through it.
Some of what comes through in this conversation includes:
- Thomas’ love for the church
- His (and my) desire that normal churches be themselves instead of trying to be something they’re not
- The problems that happen when normal churches try to copy the megachurch model
- The desire for authenticity from younger generations
And more.
