How the Willow Creek Scandal Led to a Book on Goodness (A Church Called Tov Series) - KR 159
What is the way forward for the church when so much of what we hear is đź‘Ž?
Tragically, in recent years, Christians have gotten used to revelations of abuses of many kinds in our most respected churches―from Willow Creek to Harvest, from Southern Baptist pastors to Sovereign Grace churches. Scot McKnight and former Willow Creek member Laura Barringer wrote this book to paint a pathway forward for the church. In this episode they unpack the story of how this book came to be and their hope for how it can be used to foster good cultures.
