No. 011 - The View from Above with Jon Stallsmith - a podcast by TMS Global

Welcome back to Thy Kingdom Pod, a podcast about living in the unfinished mission of Jesus, we’re so glad you’re tuning in. A traditional rule of etiquette has always been to never talk about politics in our shared spaces. Even in our churches, there are issues that pastors seem reluctant to discuss, especially if they involve race or other social topics. But what if discussing these issues is vital to the church’s mission on earth? Joining us on the show is Jon Stallsmith, the pastor of Grace Snellville. In this discussion, Jon shares about his own journey as a pastor, how his church has approached the issue of racial justice, and how the church can bring a perspective to the table that is informed by a deep understanding of scripture and creates opportunity for discipleship.
