Lisa Sharon Harper- Decolonising the Gospel to make it The Very Good Gospel

In this week episode we are speaking with Lisa Sharon Harper on decolonising the gospel in order to get back to the true gospel proclamation message, or what Lisa calls- and is also the name of her bestselling book- “The Very Good Gospel”. For some of our listeners, words such as “decolonising” might be new to you, or might even be something that sounds worrisome- and for other listeners this might sound like liberation. Regardless of your reaction, may I ask you to breathe deeply and trust me as we go into this episode and talk about The Very Good Gospel with Lisa Sharon Harper.

Lisa Sharon Harper is the founder and president of Freedom Road, a ground breaking consulting group that crafts experiences that bring common understanding and common commitments that lead to common action toward a more just world. Lisa is a public theologian whose writing, speaking, activism and training has sparked and fed the fires of re-formation in the church from Ferguson and Charlottesville to South Africa, Brazil, Australia and Ireland. Lisa’s book, ​The Very Good Gospel​ was named 2016 “Book of the Year” and the Huffington Post identified Lisa as one of 50 Women Religious Leaders to Celebrate on International Women’s Day.
