Join our monthly Radix Live event, as host Matthew Steem invites Mark D. Baker to talk about his book, Centered-Set Church: Discipleship and Community Without Judgmentalism (IVP Academic, 2022). A "centered-set' is an alternative to either a "bounded-set" (churches with hard boundaries that can repel newcomers or make it difficult for them to join) or a "fuzzy-set" (churches with so much inclusion that they lack a vital sense of shared faith and identity). This Radix Live event will include a conversation between Mark and our two panelists, who have used a centered-set approach in their ministries, and time for your questions
