112. Abandoning the Loser Gospel | A Practical Postmillennialism Series
May 24, 2024 • Kendall Lankford
Join us in today's episode of the PRODCAST as we dive deep into the Book of Acts to uncover how it demonstrates a victorious eschatology. Kendall Lankford from The Shepherd's Church draws an analogy between the 2024 Detroit Pistons and modern evangelicalism, urging believers to reject a defeatist mentality, stop tanking our legacy, and to embrace the victory of Christ.
KEY TOPICS COVERED

The need for the Church to repent of eschatological escapism
