Hugh Brandt - Breaking Church Walls

In this powerful episode of Bleeding Daylight, global city transformation expert Hugh Brandt challenges traditional views of faith and work, revealing how professionals across all sectors can meaningfully contribute to community flourishing. Brandt discusses the importance of understanding one's work as a critical part of God's larger kingdom narrative, emphasizing that every profession—from dentistry to cybersecurity—can be a platform for positive cultural transformation.

Drawing from his decades of international experience, Brandt explores the concept of “tzadikim” (righteous leaders) working collaboratively across seven societal spheres to bring about systemic change. He shares inspiring examples from cities like Abidjan, Denver, and Worcester, where Christians are moving beyond individual focus to create tangible improvements in education, healthcare, economic mobility, and community development, ultimately demonstrating that the gospel is both proclaimed and lived.
