Theology walks a razor's edge: it seeks to be true to God's revelation in history but it brings that revelation to each successive culture. German theologian Friedrich Schleiermacher did not like that his own 19th century culture was destroying Christian religion. So what'd he do? He made a very clever shift to invite that culture in for a conversation. It was a move that not only helped to burn the house of Christianity down to the ground, it established foundational roots for today's popular Christianity. In this episode I also unpack what NGOs do, what is down inside the Vatican's secret crypt, what Pope Pius XII did for the voiceless during the Holocaust, and what we've learned thus far in our ongoing series on God's beautiful Holy Spirit. Come laugh and think with me!
