10 Years of Beholding God: Paul Washer, pt 2
10 years ago we released our first large study, Behold Your God: Rethinking God Biblically. In that study, we interviewed men such as Paul Washer, Conrad Mbewe, Andrew Davies, and more. With any project of this size, a great deal of interview material is left out due to time constraints. We wanted to take a few podcast episodes and let you see their complete answers to our questions.
This week we are showing part 2 of Paul Washer’s interview. In it, we ask him about personal holiness, idolatry in churches, and more. We pray it is a blessing to you.
