Show Notes

Nick, a decades-long fan of U2, discusses the group’s front man, Bono, in this week’s episode of The Far Middle. “Although Bono is a great example of a successful server…doing everything right…there is one arena where he’s doing something quite wrong…what Bono is saying and preaching is very different at times from he’s actually doing, there’s an element of inconsistency, and hypocrisy perhaps, at work that does need to be called out,” says Nick. “If you’re doing something that is very different than what you’re preaching or advocating for, then that has the potential to make you a useful instrument of the Leech.”
