Outside The Walls With Timothy Putnam

What picture pops into your head when you envision "the Church?" Whose faces are situated next to yours in the family portrait above God's mantle? The answer to this question has implications on how we live out our faith, practice evangelization, and make disciples. It's the fundamental question of "Who Belongs?" Fr. Josh Johnson joins us to discuss his new book, On Earth as It Is in Heaven: Restoring God’s Vision for Race and Discipleship. This book follows Fr. Josh’s journey of serving as the only Black priest in the diocese of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Fr. Josh draws from the riches of Scripture, personal experience as a Catholic of color, his priestly ministry, and the wisdom of the Church to encourage Catholics to understand more deeply the call of Christ to make disciples of “all peoples and nations (Matt. 28:19).”
