Episode description

What is an "evangelical" and why should we care?

Here's some of what we got into:

  • Emerging Church apostates
  • Exvangelical deconstruction
  • TGC-centredness
  • Compromise & cowardice
  • Defence, offence, proclamation

Given the increasingly broad amount of people who now use that term, should we ditch it altogether? Aaron and Nathan talk through some of their own story as evangelicals over the last two decades, including the influence of various movements that have arisen within evangelicalism in the time they've known one another, such as the Emerging Church, the New Calvinism, The Gospel Coalition, and now, "Exvangelicalsm". They talk through and what we need for a more robustly evangelical approach in the years ahead, concerned not merely with "guarding" the truth, but going on the offensive in "proclaiming" the truth when and how it needs to be proclaimed.

 

Be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might

Defy the devil and act like men

Love the brotherhood

Fear God Christ is Lord

God save the king...
