In this episode, we delve into the profound impact of crisis on faith formation, tracing back to how socio-political upheavals like the Babylonian conquest of Judah led to the creation of the Old Testament. The discussion explores how these challenges not only birthed the Hebrew Bible but also shaped its theological narratives.
The episode further examines how similar themes of crisis re-emerge in the New Testament, particularly in the Gospels and the Book of Revelation, reflecting responses to subsequent social and political crises.
A broader examination reveals how contemporary socio-political events continue to shape faith, particularly within American evangelicalism, and the culture wars impacting modern Christianity. Guest speakers share their insights, experiences, and the personal impacts of these crises on faith, sparking thoughtful dialogue on the intersection of politics, crisis, and religious belief.
