The Babylon Bee’s managing editor Joel Berry joins Blake to talk about modern Christianity from a satirical perspective and what it looks like when you surrender the culture over to God while having fun and speaking truth. His recent book is a reimagining of The Pilgrim’s Progress that uses satire, humor, wisdom and adventure to tackle deep, theological topics. Listen in as they discuss what it looks like to use the gifts God has given you to make a difference in today’s culture.
Joel & Kyle are the authors of The Postmodern Pilgrim’s Progress - available everywhere now!
