We can be fooled by things like big buildings, parking lots full of cars, impressive websites, or anything that seems generally popular. But if those are the kinds of things that can deceive us, what are the things we SHOULD consider? How can we find depth and meaning? And what are the signs that might be helpful when looking for a church, a spiritual practice, or any kind of organization we might want to explore? Amy and Nancy discuss these things while keeping Mark 13:1-7 in mind. Enjoy!
