The Jaw-Dropping Beauty of Jesus // Facing the Canon with Gary Wilkerson

This week, J.John is joined by Gary Wilkerson, who reflects on a remarkable family heritage of Christian ministry, from a chaplain in the American Civil War to generations of revivalists and church leaders. As the son of David Wilkerson, Gary shares the story behind his father’s ministry, including his work with young people in New York, the well-known account of Nicky Cruz, and the founding of World Challenge, which Gary now leads as President. In this conversation, he offers insight into the ongoing work of World Challenge in supporting and resourcing the global Church, and reflects on themes from his book The Jaw-Dropping Beauty of Jesus, based on the book of Hebrews, exploring a deeper understanding of Christ and its relevance for faith today.
