Today we touch back on community with a little discussion about online communities. Then, Reggie and Brian dig into the topic of the sanctity of life. Recent forward movements in the UK have brought this back to our attention. Join R&B as we talk about value, identity, and why it's not Biblical to implement any kind of euthanasia.

On this episode of R&B Talks, Brian and Reggie talk about community. What was community like in the beginning? How Israel changed community from tribalistic to monarchical. What was community like in the post-pentecost era. How community is today in the American Christian church from our perspective. How can we bring a more connected and God-centered community back into the church.
