Fragile Bonds: Women Desperate for Connection

In this episode of Burning Butterflies, we dive into the relationships that women had with one another at Come As You Are Church.

 

The summer of 2015 felt almost utopian for the women in the congregation. With Tom and Charlotte preoccupied with the construction of their new home, the women experienced an unprecedented level of freedom. They served and functioned in ways they felt God was calling them, fostering supportive relationships and sharing things with one another that would typically be considered taboo in evangelical circles.

 

But as the fall approached and Tom and Charlotte shifted their focus back to church matters, the delicate fabric of these relationships began to unravel. Mom's Group begins to show their first signs of cracks and Amanda and Brandi are desperate to keep it going. Melissa, isolated in her marriage, stives to make connections wherever she can.
