<p>rev-o-lu-tion \rev-e-lÃ¼&#034;“shen\ n&#8211;repudiating tepid systems and practices of the Christian faith and introducing a wholesale shift in how faith is understood, integrated and influencing the world</p>
<p>According to years&#039; worth of data collected by <a href="http://www.barna.org/" target="_">George Barna</a>, the church is in the midst of the biggest Revolution of our time.  Droves of committed believers are foregoing Sunday mornings to live a 24/7 faith unfettered by the clutter and bureaucracy within the church walls.</p>
<p>In stark contrast to both the stuffy, formulaic religiosity sometimes found in the established church and the feel-good, invent-your-own spirituality, the Revolution is casting off anything that hinders a full, vibrant life of discipleship to Christ.</p>
<p>Join Steve and George Barna on this week&#039;s edition of The Brown Sessions and get the skinny on the Revolution.<a href="http://keylifemedia.com/sbetc/the-brown-sessions-podcast/bs020-09132007.mp3"></a></p>

Go ahead&#8230;check it out and then come back for today&#039;s interview.  Trust me.</p>
<p>If you&#039;re one of the 70 million people who already know about XXXchurch.com, then you may be familiar with its founder, Craig Gross.  You might have seen him debating Ron Jeremy on TV or at a college campus near you.  Maybe you saw him at one of his booths at a porn convention where he hands out Bibles with covers that read, &#034;Jesus loves porn stars.&#034;  It was probably at the debate&#8230;sure.</p>
<p>Join Steve and Craig on this week&#039;s edition of The Brown Sessions for some great intercourse.<a href="http://keylifemedia.com/sbetc/the-brown-sessions-podcast/bs016-08162007.mp3"></a></p>

That sounds pretty cool until you hear about the taunting he received at school for being the &#034;bastard child of Ronald Reagan.&#034;  Then there was the trauma and disorientation of his adoptive parents&#039; divorce.  Add to that being a victim of molestation and child pornography at the hands of a camp counselor, and it all kinda takes the shine off the fame and influence thing.</p>
<p>Then Michael Reagan was adopted again.</p>
<p>Join Steve as he talks with Michael Reagan about his book, <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0805431446?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=stebroetc-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0805431446" target="_blank">Twice Adopted</a></em>, that details his struggle with loneliness, shame, feelings of rejection, and the belief that God doesn&#039;t care about us.</p>
<p>Michael Reagan is heard daily by over 5 million listeners via his nationally syndicated talk radio program, <a href="http://www.reagan.com/" target="_blank">&#034;The Michael Reagan Show.&#034;</a><a href="http://keylifemedia.com/sbetc/the-brown-sessions-podcast/bs015-08092007.mp3"></a></p>

Here&#039;s something he said on this edition of The Brown Sessions&#8230;</p>
<p><em>&#034;What [posturing] leads to is this dual life.  Who I am before you, I know I am not behind your back.  And so the discrepancy, that sense of contradiction, I think is an acid that eventually literally tears away at the very fabric of faith for most leaders.&#034;</em></p>
<p>And get this&#8230;</p>
<p><em>&#034;I think if you were to peer into many leader&#039;s hearts, they remember believing.  They remember the first love.  But in one sense, the posturing has so eroded something of their own capacity to be real and to be alive&#8230;that they&#039;ve become somewhat robotic and certainly distant.  And that kind of leadership never is a person that you would want to deeply follow.&#034;</em></p>
<p>Dan Allender is the President of <a href="http://www.mhgs.edu/" target="_blank">Mars Hill Graduate School</a> and Professor of Counseling. He&#039;s the author of a bunch of books, among them, <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0891092897?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=stebroetc-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0891092897" target="_blank">The Wounded Heart: Hope for Adult Victims of Childhood Sexual Abuse</a></em>.  He&#039;s also a former drug dealer and deeply flawed individual.  Now you know why I like him so much.</p>
<p>Join Steve as he talks with Allender about his book, <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1578569508?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=stebroetc-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1578569508" target="_blank">Leading with a Limp: Turning Your Struggles into Strengths</a></em>.  If you&#039;re a pastor, it may just be the beginning of your salvation.<a href="http://keylifemedia.com/sbetc/the-brown-sessions-podcast/bs014-08022007.mp3"></a></p>
