Tough Talk
Manage episode 308472438 series 2991222
WARNING: this episode contains hard-hitting, provocative material.
'James' is a church leader in a large city in the North of England, but spent his 20s and 30s on a Frontiers team in West Africa.
In this episode, as well as sharing his story and some fascinating anecdotes, he also challenges and questions many of our modern-day theological and cultural narratives.
He and Matt discuss privilege and wealth, justice and evangelism, rights and entitlement, ‘buying’ converts, equality and wealth redistribution, sexism, state surveillance and suffering.
Are you willing to be challenged?
Brace yourself and press play!
