Episode Details

After a number of difficult years and dismal statistics, a new report from Barna says pastors are on the mend. Another book about "ex-vangelicals" has been released. Does it have anything new to add to the conversation? And a record number of Latinos in the U.S. are leaving Catholicism to become Pentecostal evangelicals. What does it mean for the future of the church? Then, Holy Post Media's CEO, Jon Houghton, joins Skye to discuss how he's leading the organization, why Christian media needs to change, and the new projects launching this year. Plus, Wrinkle the duck, Albert the alligator, and an "audacious scheme" with super sheep.
