In this conversation, I chat with Jordan Penely, Lead Pastor of King’s Table Church in Raleigh, NC, to discuss the role of accountability in pursuing holiness and growing in Christ. We explore everyday evangelism, the relevance of apologetics, and how spiritual growth happens through community. The conversation also touches on foster care and adoption as expressions of the gospel.
