Missions Pulse, Episode 23: Andrew Cannon

Missions Pulse 23: Andrew Cannon

The truth is the truth. It is abrasive. It goes against the grain. But if we unwittingly let the environment change the truth, the truth will set no one free.

On the flipside, the more you yield to the influence of God’s Kingdom, the easier it is to deviate from the adverse currents of popular culture. Altering the course of the world calls for explicit nonconformity to many widely accepted cultural norms.

So be a righteous deviant! There’s so much pressure to bend into the mold, to be heated up, and to be forged into the ways of the world. The world is saying to the church, you have to be open-minded. You should be open-minded! As long as that openness remains in the mind of Christ.

In this episode of Missions Pulse, David Joannes interviews Andrew Cannon, founder of Gospel Grenades. This explosive conversation will challenge you to step out as a righteous deviant and create ripples of transformation wherever you go.
