The Need for the Shepherd to Step into Controversy for the Sake of the Sheep - Jesse Randolph
Richard Bargas discusses with Pastor Jesse Randolph the reasons why it is sometimes necessary for the church to become involved in controversy. They draw from two recent controversies, Reformed Dispensationalism and the Active Obedience of Christ, to talk about how ideas can infiltrate a church and influence people, and why some issues need to be addressed.
