Ministry Misfits

Ministry Misfits

More and more we are hearing about pastors and ministry leaders that feel like they just don’t fit the mold of what American Church culture expects them to be, expects them to look like, preach like, and even think like. We wanted to make a podcast for ministers dealing with the current social and cultural issues here in the US and the Church. We will look at these things through CSRM’s 3 tier paradigm of Theological Truths, Philosophical Principles, and Methodological Models. Hopefully, to help us all regain perspective and regain some sanity. Support this podcast: www.patreon.com/ministrymisfits

This week we are looking into the Theology behind a controversial post, that never should have been controversial. “Christians don’t have enemies, we have neighbors.” Is this true? Why the controversy? What does scripture actually say about all of this?
