Aug 24, 2022•44 min•Season 3Ep. 4
Episode description
Many Christian leaders use their fame and influence to great effect. Whether that popularity resides at the local church level or represents national or international influence, many leaders have effectively said to their followers, "Follow me as I follow Christ." But fame that is cultivated for its own sake, without attendant spiritual maturity and accountability, has a shadow side that runs counter to the heart of the gospel. In this episode, Katelyn Beaty shares with Lynn Cohick how celebrity has led to abuses of power, the cultivation of persona, and a fixation on profits.
