No Place For The Lukewarm Church | Guest: Kangmin Lee

American Christians have had the "luxury" of living comfortably, as America has long identified as a Christian nation. It was easy to blend in and practice nominal Christianity. However, as the landscape changes and the start contrast between the world and believers grow, there is no place for a lukewarm church. Lukewarmness has always been detestable to God, but now, as the church is pressed on issues, comfortability is no longer an option. My first podcast guest, Kangmin Lee, and I engage ...
