Saved by the City

Best of SBTC: How We Survived the Great Evangelical Betrayal


Listen Later

From Jesus Freak to freaked out.

In this episode, we grapple with "the e-word" and why we struggle to claim the evangelical label. Having grown up fully immersed in that culture and going on to dedicate much of our careers to the movement, we examine our disillusionment and disappointment with its trajectory — and where we go next.

The past five years revealed fractures and hypocrisies that betrayed so much of what we — and a generation of millennial Christians — grew up being taught. Now we wonder: Is evangelicalism worth saving?

Plus: We go on an adventure to Washington Square Park to hear what some of our New York City neighbors think about the word "evangelical."
