Today, I welcome back my friend, Fr Josh Johnson to talk about his new book “On Earth as It Is in Heaven: Restoring God’s Vision of Race and Discipleship.” We have a wonderful conversation about the importance of seeing race and ethnicity primarily through the lens of the gospel and evangelization, as this is the great commission of Jesus.
We talk about Jesus’ desire for all to be invited to the heavenly banquet and how the Church has evangelized to various nations in her history. Fr Josh shares modern stories of leaders who have taking practical steps forward, areas that we still need to grow in, ways we can increase cultural representations in our parishes and ministry events, and how we can rethink our politics in light of the gospel.
