Summary

In this episode from the archives, Pastor Erwin McManus shares his unexpected journey from skepticism to faith, his conviction to plant roots in Los Angeles, and the challenges of building a church that embraces the outsider. With raw honesty, he recounts battles fought—not just against societal norms, but within the church itself—while casting a bold vision for the next 20 years. This episode is more than a celebration; it's a rallying cry to step into the unknown, to embrace the giants ahead, and to be architects of a world where creativity and spirituality collide. If you’ve ever wrestled with your calling, struggled to fit into traditional faith structures, or dreamed of making an impact, this is a must-listen. The future is ours to create.
