Bryan Loritts, Pastor & Author – Episode 30 – On Multi-Ethnic Church, Ministry Leadership & Identity in Christ

Pastor Bryan Loritts discusses how to become a multi-ethnic church, as well as the cost and challenges therein.  Noah Filipiak also asks Pastor Bryan for help in navigating the Christian subculture of church planting, pastoring and being an author in a way where we don’t end up measuring ourselves by performance-oriented metrics.
