Description

The Beatles might have claimed to be bigger than Jesus, but when they said “Love is all you need,” they were just riffing on Jesus’ words. In this episode, Glen Scrivener and Andrew Wilson discuss how today’s slogans—Black Lives Matter, Women’s Rights are Human Rights, No Human is Illegal, Science is Real, Love Is Love, Kindness Is Everything—flow from a worldview thoroughly shaped by Christianity.They compare and contrast ancient, Christian, and secular virtues to explore the inherent inconsistencies of today’s culture, question how relativistic our society really is, and describe how we’ve arrived at a new pharisaism where those who don’t get on board with the modern program are the new heretics of our secular age.Credits:Post-Christianity? is a podcast from The Gospel Coalition and The Keller Center for Cultural Apologetics.

Where does the “post-Christianity” of the twenty-first-century West actually come from? How does this story help us understand the rapid cultural developments we have seen in recent years? And what might evangelism, mission, and discipleship look like in light of it? Andrew Wilson and Glen Scrivener consider our Western, post-Christian culture, discussing how we got here, what it means, and how to respond through topics ranging from sexuality, psychology, and economics to identity, theology, hospitality, and art. Post-Christianity? is a podcast from The Gospel Coalition and The Keller Center for Cultural Apologetics.
