Becoming a Future Ready Church: Conversation with Carl Johnson and the Authors

October 09, 2024


Exponential NEXT Podcast Episode 30

Series: Becoming a Future-Ready Church


In the first part of this episode, Adelle Banks talks to Carl Johnson, Lead Pastor of Faith City Church. They discuss how family life is changing, specifically engaging the social factors that disrupt traditional family life. Faith City Church is spotlighted.


As we continue with this episode, Warren Bird, Daniel Yang, and Adelle Banks, co-authors of Becoming a Future-Ready Church, discuss how the Gospel’s credibility depends on both the message and the messenger. Going forward, most church discussions about the Gospel will first need to address the skepticism or apathy triggered by the listener’s distrust and previous experiences.
