Willowcreek, the Catholic Church, Power, and Desert Island Books

So We Speak Podcast

Is the church a business?  Do secular leadership tactics work in the Church? This week we talk about the nature of leadership and power in the church. In the midst of the scandals at Willowcreek and in the Catholic Church, it’s time to have an honest conversation about what got us here and what to do about it.
