Alisa Childers joins me to discuss progressive Christianity and her journey of rebuilding her faith after being taught by a progressive pastor.
Questions Alisa and I Discussed:
- (5:21) You have walked with Jesus a long time and as an adult you experienced a faith crisis when you began attending a Sunday School class led by one of the church pastors. Will you share a bit of that story with us?
- (9:22) What were some of the steps you took to dig in and research if you what you had believed as a Christian was true?
- (14:24) It was not a university professor that challenged all you believed, but a progressive Christian pastor. What is progressive Christianity and what are some of their core beliefs?
- (18:24) Share a little about what you discovered when you began to research why the Bible is the inspired, inerrant, infallible Word of God?
- (31:07) How do progressives view the Bible?
- (34:49) Listener Question (Erica): What are some buzz words or red flags that may point toward progressive Christian thought?
- (39:10) Progressive Christianity can be very subtle changes made to God’s Word and often seem true and good and right. How do you encourage Christians to educate and prepare themselves to interact with progressive Christian claims?
- (47:31) We are both commanded to love God and love our neighbor. How are these commands being misinterpreted by progressive Christian thoughts and ideas?
Quotes to Remember:
“So the Christianity that I grew up with was very wholistic…it wasn’t just a Sunday thing and it wasn’t just a church thing. This was something that we lived as a family.”
“The pastor invited me to be a part of this small class situation that he compared to seminary…. In the context of the class, the pastor early on, revealed that he was actually agnostic and that really kind of shook me…because by this point I had come to respect this guy, and really trust him as a pastor….Over the course of about four months, just about everything that I ever believed about God, and Jesus, and the Bible, in particular, was picked apart and explained away.
