What Is God Doing in the Brown Church?

/

Ministering Among Post-Religious People

/

As the decline of Christendom continues to shape North America, it is important to reflect on the new ways those outside our churches hear and respond to the story of Jesus. Drawing from his years of planting churches in the five boroughs of New York City, and from his new book, Lost Faith: A Practical Theology for Post-Christendom Ministry, Seth Bouchelle joins us to discuss the spiritual formation of new disciples in a religiously pluralistic context.
