By Inside the Editors' Room Podcast, Crosswalk.com
This week, the editors sit down to discuss Jen Hatmaker's heartfelt Good Friday post about the "Christian Machine" and have a larger conversation about what it means to have a platform, build a brand, and pursue your callings in today's Christian culture as writers and content creators. We also discuss Lisa-Jo Baker's new book "Never Unfriended" and talk about friendships for women and men alike-- all four of us found things that challenged and encouraged us in this one!
Join us on Facebook to share your feedback-- we look forward to hearing your thoughts on platforms, branding, and friendships!
