Non-Negotiables for the Modern Church

As promised some months ago, we would like to talk about the non-negotiables for the church in the world today. Many cultural movements of late have put the church in a variety of interesting positions.

In this episode, Rev. Dr. Ed Gerber, Prof. Douglas Farrow, Dr. Jens Zimmermann, Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, and Ivan deSilva put forth their ideas of the church’s non-negotiable and have discussion. What are the non-negotiables for the modern church? Join us as we tackle this issue from both a Catholic and Protestant perspective. Our hope and prayer is to build up and exhort Christ’s church to be faithful in her ministry amidst todays cultural and political waves.

Thank you for tuning in to this episode.
