Darrin Patrick, lead pastor of The Journey (my home church and where I intern) interviews my friend Ed Stetzer, President of Lifeway Research and Lifeway’s Missiologist in Residence, on what he sees as the pressing issues within evangelicalism today.
I believe this is Ed at his best, bringing prophetic insight to a wide variety of topics that should be of interest to those who love the church and the Gospel. Enjoy:
3. Proactive. True. Bob Roberts disciple, Aaron Snow, who is leading intentional missional communities in Vegas, hits the mark on why Christians suck at reaching the lost.

6. Brian’s recent trip to New Orleans reminded him the old days when musicians could make a decent living making art, like, you know, in the Baroque era. He says that in dumbing down worship, we have created a non-culture of indigenous art springing up from within our churches. Anyone can play the music that is being written today…
