Fabric Podcast
Welcome to the Fabric podcast! Fabric is a thoughtful, progressive experiment in being church, based in South Minneapolis. We love hosting space where curiosity, connection, and inclusive belonging have space to stretch out and get comfy. Take the time you need to explore what we’re about, and when you’re ready, connect however feels best. The conversation is always fresh!
Fabric is church, for the rest of us.

Don't go getting all nervous, we can talk about this with our clothes on. It's funny that we react this way to that simple word: Intimacy. We value it so much, but we really don't want to talk about it - at least not in public. Intimacy is something we need. God intends for us to build bonds of trust to glue our relationships together through it. So if you are confused by the over-sexualizing of intimacy you see in the media, the abuse of it you hear in the news and are generally a little freaked out over it... well then it's time to talk.

That's something no one wants to be. Vulnerability is a sign of weakness, it means you aren't in control and might get hurt. Power is better because it means we don't have to be vulnerable. Except God, whom we'd assume is powerful, got really vulnerable by being born as Jesus. Is God telling us something? Does vulnerability have a place in relationships? I'll tip my hat and tell you that if Jesus showed us anything, it is that vulnerability is where relationships are forged.

You get into all sorts of relationships all the time and whether you are super excited about each one or have no choice, you probably aren't hoping that these people make your life miserable. No, you want them to enrich it! But do you realize that the difference between those two outcomes is up to you? Not them? There aren't any easy answers, but God has a vision for how to be "Us" in the world.

I hope you were given some great presents for Christmas, but you know, cool as it may be, all that stuff doesn't matter much if there is tension at home, conflict at work or fallings out with friends. Relationships, you & me, that's what really counts. And no matter how hard we've tried those connections always need more attention. There are no secrets, no '3 Steps to Relational Bliss', but there are recurring themes we can dig into that make relationships healthier. Join us in GroupLifeand each Sunday in January as we wrestle with some of the best parts of being You & Me.

Anyone who thinks letting God pop into your world and not be sent off on the rollercoaster ride of a lifetime is thinking about some other God than the one the Christmas story talks about. Mary, Joseph, shepherds, wisemen, you name them, the only thing they could say for sure after Jesus happened to them was that nothing would ever be the same. Welcome to the adventure (aka "Merry Christmas!") It's yours now too.
