Pastor Ryan Visconti | Pastoral Cycle of Cowardice | Anatomy of the Church and State #27

Pastor Ryan Visconti joins the show to tackle the uncomfortable truth: cowardice and sin have infected the church. He exposes the 3-step "Pastoral Cycle of Cowardice" - silence, corruption, and capitulation - and its devastating impact on Biblical truth. Learn how to recognize these signs in your own church and discover how pastors and parishioner can break free and lead a courageous return to God's word.

Ryan has a Master’s degree in theology from Liberty University and served as captain in the U.S. Army. After completing his active duty God led him to join the pastoral leadership team at Generation Church in Arizona in 2011. As of 2014 he is now the Lead Pastor of Generation.
