Join Dr. Mark Chrionna as he interviews Dr. Esay McCaulley, Assistant Professor of NT at Wheaton College.

Dante Stewart is a compelling prophetic voice within the emerging generation whose pen is as mighty as the sword. His Pentecostal upbringing has served him well. His writings have been published by Christianity Today, Fathom Magazine, Faithfully Magazine, Sojourners, and The Witness: A Black Christian Collective. I count Dante a dear friend and value his insights. True prophetic witness, when referring to Christ himself was about comforting the afflicted and afflicting the comfortable. Dante speaks in that genuine prophetic tradition. Listen deeply and empathetically, and let his words touch your heart. Hear the depths of his heart for Christ and allow the Spirit to use those words and insights to bring you to a fresh appreciation for living the Cross-shaped life.
