On this episode of the Ephesiology Podcast, Michael and Andrew reveal a new theological education initiative in partnership with the Movement Leaders Collective. The founders, Alan Hirsch and Rich Robinson, join the podcast to talk about the significance of this collaborative initiative for movement thinkers. As we are fond of saying, “To shift the tracks of history requires leaders who are equipped to critically assess and engage the contours of contemporary culture.”

Educating to Shift the Tracks of History
