Episode notes

Trinity Forum is partnering with David and Russell in a project called the afterparty. The event aims to encourage Christians to thank their members for things that go well, rather than criticize those they think are doing wrong. "We do see polarization kind of reaching toxic levels," says Trinity Forum's chief operating officer. 'This is an exercise of creative power'

We’ve witnessed story after story about the abuse of power practiced by Christians and Christian institutions. Does that mean that, to quote Lord Acton, that “power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely?” How should followers of Jesus relate to the possibility of wielding power? Cherie Harder, the President of The Trinity Forum, is ideally suited to address these questions. She’s spent a lifetime in the corridors of power and shares a wealth of theological and practical wisdom on this important topic.
