Show Notes
John interviews Chip Herrera, pastor of Community Church of Hudson, Iowa, about Community Exegesis. Community exegesis, similar to biblical exegesis, is the process used to observe, interpret and understand the needs and culture of a church’s community so that ministry and evangelism connects with them in a vital, life-transforming way. In this episode, we are introduced to Pastor Chip and his ministry, and we get a basic understanding of community exegesis.
