In this episode, Dr. Tom Wright joins us to discuss his latest book, Jesus and the Powers, co-authored with Michael Bird.

He unpacks the New Testament’s depiction of “the powers” and what it means for Christians navigating the complex intersections of faith and government today. From the role of the church in society to contemporary issues, this conversation offers profound insights for living faithfully in a world marked by power and division. Join us for a timely discussion on the revolutionary implications of Jesus’ kingdom.
