Gospel Add-Ons (027)

About this episode

The episode discusses the simplicity of the gospel and how it has become complicated with add-ons, reflecting on the Jesus movement and current church dynamics.

In this episode we talk about the simplicity of the gospel and how we clutter it up and make it complicated with add-ons. But it isn't complicated. Join us as we talk about Susan's recent church visit and we take a look back at our gospel roots in the Jesus movement of the late 60s and early 70s and how things have changed in today's church climate. Enjoy!
