Deep down, we all crave to be our truest selves. But what if we’re afraid that our culture has no place in Christian spaces? Recording artist, author, and academic Sho Baraka argues that our faith doesn’t have to exist separate from the rest of the world. On this episode of VOICES’s Where Ya From? podcast, Sho joins host Rasool Berry to discuss his book He Saw That It Was Good and his walk with Jesus so far.
