Hosts Joshua Noel and TJ (Tiberius Juan) Blackwell host another ROUND TABLE! This time we are discussing the biggest and most dangerous traps the Church might fall for today. We look at times and situations where we have seen churches fall before, as well as symptoms of a toxic church. We discuss what might lead a local church away from its true mission and how we can prevent ourselves from falling for these very dangers. Joining this Round Table discussion is Joe Dea of "Buddy Walk with Jesus", Christian Ashley of "Let Nothing Move You", and Elizabeth Clyde of "Systematic Geekology" and "The Clyde's".
