Growing Together
INSIDE OUTSIDE
What do you do when being a part of the church makes it impossible to love like Jesus loved?
Tim and Abby are called to leave their comfortable Christian community in Texas to help build a church in Baltimore. Tim is convinced they can help make the city a better place; Abby isn’t so sure. The church starts to grow, nothing goes as planned and they are forced to question their faith and who they are.
Moving to a new city forces Tim and Abby to build relationships with people who aren’t like them for the first time in their lives. They come face to face with the struggles of addiction, the torment of poverty, and the pain of gender discrimination in ways that force them to question the teachings of their childhood religion, and their relationships with others and with themselves.
As the scales fall from their eyes, can this loving couple find a new path forward that reconciles their deep faith with the path they are on? Or will their belief in a loving, merciful God lead them in a whole new direction?
