49, How to Navigate Patron-Client Relationships in Honor-Shame Cultures (With Gabriela Phillips&Jayson Georges) - a podcast by GC IWM

What kinds of relationships fuel the social life of honor-shame societies? In this episode, Jayson Georges explores how patron-client dynamics operate and the intricate set of rules and expectations required to maintain the relationship. The Bible assumes this type of power brokering and invites us to see how God reverses yet preserves the system so that in Christ, we all become clients and patrons. Jayson gives us practical examples and a peek into his upcoming book on this topic.
