George Janko: The Arrogance Of Thinking God Needs Your Pr...

This episode features Johnny Chang in a long-form conversation with George Janko about faith, pride, grace, public controversy, church division, marriage, calling, and spiritual growth. George reflects on the Christian Avengers episode, losing community, learning humility, and what it means to truly surrender to God. The discussion spans salvation, relationships, accountability, ministry, and living out faith with grace rather than judgment.
