Jon Ritner joins Joy and Geoff on this episode as they have a conversation with Michael Frost about the peculiar challenges of Christianity in the 21st Century. He speaks about the deep disturbing shift that happened during the industrial 1950s that reduced what most know as Christianity to a highly political and narrow-minded version of faith. However, he sees great hope if we utilize the collective wisdom for collaboration towards advocacy, social justice and unraveling systems of oppression.
