Summary:

Today we’re talking with Dr. Russell Moore about power in the Christian church, and about the way the church wields power at a time when it seems to be loosing cultural influence. 

Russell Moore, is Public Theologian at Christianity Today and Director of Christianity Today’s Public Theology Project. 

The Wall Street Journal has called Moore “vigorous, cheerful, and fiercely articulate.” He was named in 2017 to Politico Magazine’s list of top fifty influence-makers in Washington, and has been profiled by such publications as the Washington Post and the New Yorker.
