Becoming a Radiant Church with Tara Beth Leach [EP-128]
Subscribe via
iTunes | Spotify | Google | Stitcher | Audible Kurt Willems has a conversation with Tara Beth Leach about her important new book, Radiant Church: Restoring the Credibility of Our Witness. Here's what Kurt said in his endorsement:
"No doubt about it, Christianity has a bad reputation problem in the USA. But that is not how it is supposed to be. The Scriptures offer us a vocation: to be people who bear the loving light of God. In Radiant Church, Tara Beth Leach does something radical: she looks to Jesus first, the light of the world in human flesh. Jesus calls us to know him and live like him in such a way that radical love should be what we are known for, not bigotry, hypocrisy, patriarchy, polarization, racism, political ideology, or any other negatively loaded label. Rather than watering down the Bible to make Christianity more palatable for our culture, she invites us to drink deeply of its story, to become people known for radiating God's beauty and goodness to our world. Read this prophetic book, and let's take up the abundant resources of Jesus together so we can put his vision of a Radiant Church on full display."

Customer Reviews
My go-to Christian podcast, for lack of better title
Love this podcast. My go-to for learning about Jesus and staying connected. Has truly helped me the past few years. I must have started listening when it was new, somehow stumbled upon it but was immediately hooked! Does great book reviews with authors, but I really like the solo episodes on biblical study topics. Thank you and please don’t stop the podcast. This kind of content is much needed and appreciated.
The Real Deal
Kurt is the real deal. He prioritizes the Christ-like Way, and handles scripture with nuance and complexity without giving into the binary world of “progressive” or “conservative” theology. He’s just following Jesus and teaching others to do the same regardless of the label we might be tempted to through at him.
Bummer
I have learned so much from this podcast but I feel this last episode promoted using government to bring YHWH‘s Kingdom. I’m out
