Shifting Culture

    We have conversations about the culture we create and the impact we can make. With different guests each episode, we have in-depth interviews with leaders into what it looks like to live in the Kingdom of God, embody Jesus and impact the culture around us. We long to see the body of Christ look like Jesus.
