Overview
Today on the podcast, I talked to Dr. Gregg Okesson, Dean of the E. Stanley Jones School of World Mission and Evangelism at Asbury Seminary. Dr. Okesson is a church planter and served as a faculty member at Scott Christian University in Kenya. All told, he spent 13 years serving and working alongside the people of East Africa. He also recently released a book entitled "A Public Missiology: How Local Churches Witness to a Complex World." This book received Christianity Today’s 2021 book award in the Mission/Global Church category.
This conversation was an absolute delight! We talk about Dr. Okesson’s background, why he wrote "A Public Missiology," some of the problems facing the church right now, and how we can develop a faith that isn’t shaped by culture, but that is deep, thick and complex enough to encounter the complexities of the world. We talk about how to recognize and tear down idols that have become cultural norms and how to develop sustainable habits that transform not only our lives, but the communities in which we live.
Let’s listen!
