Summary

On today's episode, Chad Harris (AKA Archraddish) discusses growing up as an IFB/IBLP missionary in Belgium and The Netherlands, and traveling around the US asking IFB churches for support. We discuss the particular stresses that this life puts on a child, and the systemic and explicit racism that perpetuates these missions organizations.
