‘The modern church is immersed in a competitive, polarized, and status driven society. It’s hard to have conversations about important issues when so many are defensive and unwilling to learn. Too often, Christians fall into these same traps. The health and witness of the church urgently depend on recovering an essential biblical virtue, humility’.
Brent talks with Dennis Edwards about his new IVP book ‘Humility Illuminated: The Biblical Path Back to Christian Character’.
Dennis is associate professor of New Testament as well as vice president for church relations and dean of North Park Seminary, Chicago. He has worked in urban ministry for over three decades, including serving as a church planter in Brooklyn and Washington DC.
