  • Christianity in a Formational Transition - Christian Baxter

    Ian Campbell and Christian Baxter ( @christianbaxter_yt  ) explore the evolving landscape of Christianity in the digital age. They discuss the notion that the current crisis facing Christianity is not merely theological but rather a formational transition, where the church struggles to adapt to a rapidly changing cultural medium. Baxter emphasizes the 'fitness problem' of the church, suggesting that as digital platforms reshape how beliefs are shared and understood, traditional structures may no longer resonate with contemporary audiences. The conversation delves into the implications of this shift, including the role of AI in theological discourse and the necessity for churches to cultivate a more embodied, relational approach to community and worship.Christian's Substack: https://substack.com/home/post/p-183313051
