Luke, Seth, and guest Brad Edwards discuss The Reason for Church, Brad's new book, and various reasons why it's harder than ever to convince people that the local church is a good thing, sometimes even harder to convince them that Jesus is God or that he's risen from the dead. Why does local church matter? Why does belonging to the body of Christ matter? How does digital technology make local church seem more optional than ever before? How does the decline of institutions shape how people relate to the church?
