Overcoming a Toxic Church Culture - Scot McKnight - 53 - FrontStage BackStage with Jason Daye

What happens when toxicity seeps into the culture of our local church? In this week's conversation on FrontStage BackStage, host Jason Daye is joined by Scot McKnight, Professor of New Testament at Northern Seminary. Scot has written over 80 books, including a church called Tov, which he co-authored with his daughter, Laura Behringer. Together, Scot and Jason explore how we, as ministry leaders, can assess our churches and look for areas of toxicity. Scot also shares how we can overcome those toxic areas and nurture a culture of goodness.
