Join us for a lunch lecture at the Bradley Study Center hosted in partnership with Mosaic Church Community!
.
JR Woodward will be sharing from his newly released book The Scandal of Leadership: Unmasking the Powers of Domination in the Church, where he gives a deeper diagnosis to the problem of domineering leadership in the church and points toward a remedy. In this lecture, he will engage René Girard by looking at scandal negatively, then positively. He will unpack how we will either be a scandal to those who look to us as leaders, or follow the scandalous way of Christ. Books will be available for sale.
