S7E201: Christian Nationalism and the Role Gospel

 

The Eikon Team delves into the concept of role gospels, discussing how identity and roles play a crucial part in understanding the gospel message. They examine variations of the role gospel including Christian Nationalism, the anti-immorality gospel, and distorted justice. They discuss historical parallels with Rome, the importance of humility and critique within the church, and the challenges posed by cultural assumptions. The conversation emphasizes the need for a unified Christian community that engages with societal issues while remaining true to the gospel's core message.
