Later Than You Think
The 21st century mission field for Christians in America features Critical Race Theory in all of its various forms. How should we prepare? How do we think about it? Most important, how can we reach those who are passionate believers in the quasi-religious belief system that is CRT?
Later Than You Think
Gnosticism -- Rebelling Against Reality
What is gnosticism and what does it have to do with transsexual rights, abortion and the woke movement? This ancient mystery religion is making a big comeback today. Once you understand what gnosticism is, you can't un-see it--but you can see its influences nearly everywhere in advertising, literature, movies, and social media. It is once again becoming part of the cultural air we breathe in everything from cremation to Disney movies. In this episode we examine gnosticism and its relationship both to Christianity and to the woke movement. No culture and no civilization that encourages gnostic tendencies and exalts the autonomous self can survive.
