Host: Robert Hatfield  |  Released Thursday, August 4, 2022 We have a lot to think about in our time. Not only must preachers determine what they believe about issues like Critical Race Theory or Social Justice, but we also need to know if / how we should address those issues in our preaching and ministry. Matt Sokoloski, Associate Professor of Bible and Humanities, teaches the “Contemporary Concerns” course at Freed-Hardeman University. Today, he joins Robert to discuss contemporary issues of which preachers need to be aware, and to offer helpful resources that will assist in getting up to speed on those issues.
