The False Doctrine of Top-Down Authority and Honorific Titles (91)

The UnSunday Show

Welcome to episode 91 of The UnSunday Show. In this episode I take a hard look at top-down authority and the use of honorific titles in the body of Christ. These things are not neutral and in fact, they do harm to the body of Christ by choosing to ignore the clear directives of Jesus concerning these important topics. In short, they prevent the body of Christ from fully expressing Christ to the world.
I also include a short update about my YouTube channel for those of you who follow me there. Be sure to listen to the end to catch that.
