ing Podcast

In today's episode, ~ing host, Ben Wideman is joined by writer and activist, Stephen Mattson, to talk about what it means to be devoted to Jesus and justice. Mattson’s work has been published in Relevant, Huffington Post, Sojourners, Red Letter Christians, and a variety of other venues. On the heels of his first book titled, "The Great Reckoning: Surviving a Christianity That Looks Nothing Like Christ" (published by Herald Press in 2018) comes a brand-new devotional titled, "On Love And Mercy: A Social Justice Devotional." Ben talks with Stephen about why a project like this makes sense for these polarized times, and how we find a balance between a faith in Jesus, and the political ways we engage the world.
