Brad and John return to discuss all things liminal, reflecting on their
journey since the last season, and pondering the ongoing cultural
changes that define our current liminal age. They explore the
complexities of navigating change, the impact of social media algorithms
on perception, and the importance of context in understanding reality.
The conversation delves into the anxiety surrounding certainty in a
rapidly changing world, the role of storytelling in shaping truth, and
the church's responsibility to steward truth amidst these challenges.
They also discuss the implications of artificial intelligence on culture
and the church's vital role in providing community and meaning in
uncertain times, concluding with a preview of the upcoming season.

Why the Church is Necessary with Truth Over Tribe
Today, Brad joins the Truth Over Tribe podcast to discuss his recent book, "The Reason For Church."
He and Patrick Miller discuss why Christian culture has been stuck in an anti-vision mindset and why a negative perception around institutions as a whole is partly to blame. Brad details why the Church is so necessary and explains how many Christians have forgotten the Church’s role as a source of healing and community. But what about people who have experienced spiritual abuse at the hands of the Church? We hope this episode offers an honest-yet-hopeful vision for church as a necessary institution.

How do you move forward when norms and expectations are changing faster than you can blink? With institutional trust at an all-time low, leaders on life support, and individualism compromising every inch of society, many of us are asking if it’s even possible (or sane) to build something that lasts.
Join Brad Edwards and John Houmes as they dig beneath the surface of rapidly-shifting culture and explore how leaders and the people they serve can thrive in a post-everything world.
