The word impact carries with it some freight or baggage that I am not sure we want to have to carry. What's behind it is the desire to make a meaningful difference in the world. And so I'm thinking, it's going to continue to be part of our vocabulary. But I've decided that for some purposes, it really does matter.
Andy Crouch returns to the podcast to question the widespread preoccupation with “making an impact.” Andy and Curtis talk about the limitations, drawbacks, and even potential idolatry involved when institutions and individuals are so focused on this definition of success. They then explore an alternative way to conceive of Christians’ role in the world, one that is rooted in the surprising model of Jesus.
