#81: A Deeply Formed Life (with Rich Villodas)

Unfortunately, you can study, pray and read the Bible every day, and still be racist and greedy and objectify women. When our discipleship lacks connection to the current cultural moment, it’s possible to be discipled in the way of Jesus but still live in the way of Satan.
— Rich Villodas

Rich Villodas, pastor of New Life Fellowship in the heart of Queens, NY, joined me on the show this week. I’ve been hugely impressed by Rich’s depth of thought and the integration of emotional health, racial reconciliation, Holy Spirit power and more that he teaches and embodies. We discussed sexual wholeness, contemplative spirituality and discipleship all in the lens of his new book, The Deeply Formed Life.
