TELL US WHAT YOU THINK: Want future Church Historia episodes? What should we talk about? Email us at hello@leslieethompson.com! On this final episode of the second season, we tell the story of monasticism, which is one of the tension between living a life of authentic dedication and finding out there’s a lot of earthly reward for doing so. There are also many conclusions that can be made from this story when we compare these monks to modern church leaders.
