Welcome back to the show! We are in a new series called Firm Foundations. This series will feature real-life examples of believers who are rooted in Christ and living out their faith boldly, despite cultural temptations or tough circumstances.
In today’s episode, I sat with my theology professor, Dr. Glenn Kreider, about the cultural impact on Christians. We talked about being a Christian in today’s culture and why you don’t have to be filled with angst or fear.
Let me tell you a little about Dr. Kreider. Prior to teaching at Dallas Theological Seminary, Dr. Kreider served as Director of Christian Education and then as Senior Pastor in Cedar Hill, TX. His research and writing interests include Jonathan Edwards, theological method, theology and popular culture, and our eschatological hope. Dr. Kreider believes that grace really is amazing; it is a thought that will change the world. He is married to his best friend, Janice, and they have two grown children and one granddaughter, Marlo Grace. He and Janice enjoy live music, good stories, bold coffee, and spending time together and with their rescue dogs—a terrier/greyhound mix named Chloe and a black lab named Carlile.
I hope this episode encourages you to navigate culture with bold faith and a strong desire to represent the God we love and serve.
