Episodes Notes

Laura Barringer is an early years teacher by day and an author in her spare time.

Her latest project is a new book that she co-authored alongside her father, Scot McKnight, A Church Called Tov: Forming a Goodness Culture That Resists Abuses of Power and Promotes Healing.

Barringer says in recent years, Christians have gotten used to revelations of abuses of many kinds in our most respected churches, and we need a better way.

Today on Connections, Laura discusses her thoughts on church leadership and ways of moving forward in a good way. She will also share the inspiration behind the book and what it was like to write the book with her father.
