353. Do Wolves Know They're Wolves?
In light of some of the recent documentaries/podcasts/scandals involving church leaders, we ask the question: do wolves know they're wolves? We're all familiar with the Bible passages about watching out for wolves in sheep's clothing, but what about the wolves themselves? Are they well-meaning but misled folks, or are they cognizant of the fact that they are leading others astray?CONTACT US:podcast@tobethechurch.comfacebook.com/tobethechurchtwitter.com/tobethechurchinstagram.com/tobethechurchyoutube.com/tobethechurch
