The Call to Be a Missional Church | Rev. Nathan Arledge

In this month’s episode of Affirming Methodism, hosts Marianne and Taylor sit down with Rev. Nathan Arledge, Senior Pastor of Harrison UMC, to talk about what it means to be an outward-focused missional church. Together, they explore how congregations can respond to injustice, gun violence, racism, and human rights violations with advocacy, hospitality, and action. Rev. Arledge shares stories of leading mission efforts in response to natural disasters and alongside immigrant communities, as well as his vision for how churches like Light of Christ and Harrison can partner in justice and mercy.
