Episode 6: Thought

This week on The Minister’s Ordinary Conversation we talk about the evangelical allergy against thinking.

“We evangelicals need to examine our anti-intellectualism, confess its pervasiveness, repent of its wrongness, and seek God’s restoration to live up to our name—truly being people of the gospel who love God not only with our hearts, souls, and strength, but also with our minds.”

So says Os Guinness in his wonderful book Fit Bodies, Fat Minds. He goes on to point out that evangelicals’ rampant anti-intellectualism will have dangerous results for their witness in the world. I think he is right and I look forward to discussing it with you.
