OM DENNE EPISODE
What if the gospel is bigger than our individual salvation—and what might that mean for the future of the Church?
In this episode of Season 6, Nick Warnes sits down with author, organizer, and public theologian Lisa Sharon Harper to explore how our understanding of the gospel shapes the way we imagine and build the future. Drawing from her own journey of rethinking faith through the stories of oppression in her family history, Lisa shares how the biblical vision of shalom offers a more expansive picture of the good news—one rooted in the healing and flourishing of the whole world.
Together, Nick and Lisa explore the connection between faith, justice, systems, and social change, asking what it means for the Church to move beyond a reduced gospel and toward a vision of radical connection, reconciliation, and the flourishing of all. They also talk about the dangers of fundamentalism, the importance of becoming better listeners, and why the future of the Church may depend on our willingness to reimagine what God is actually calling us toward.
