Can the church be future proofed? Is the church future proofed already?
Brent talks with Stephen McAlpine about his new book from The Good Book Company called ‘Futureproof: How to Live for Jesus in a Culture that Keeps on Changing’.
Stephen has been reading, writing and reflecting ever since he can remember. He’s pastored at several churches in his home state of Western Australia and in his writing dabbles in a number of fields, notably theology and culture, and the rapidly changing face of secularism in the West.
