EP 29: How To Tell The Truth (Ft. Preston Perry)

Join me Megan Ashley and Preston Perry poet, author, teacher, apologist and evangelist from Chicago. By the grace of God, Preston has become a formidable communicator of the gospel. His love for people inspires him to pair transparency and vulnerability with his creativity in a way that promotes freedom.  The fabric of modern faith is complex, and we're unraveling it thread by thread. We tackle the state of the church and its societal implications, the indispensable role of discipleship, and the nuanced challenges of apologetics within the black community. Join us as we dissect the balance between wrath and love in understanding God, and how our struggles can fortify hope and endurance. Preston's personal anecdotes and theological musings promise to illuminate and challenge your perspectives. In this episode, we're not just talking about faith—we're experiencing its transformative power. Preston's upcoming book, "How to Tell the Truth: The Story of How God Saved Me to Win Hearts--Not Just Arguments," is a testament to the universal call of discipleship across cultures. Be inspired by tales of growth and authenticity in one's faith journey, and remember, these stories are about winning hearts, not just arguments.
