What does it mean to recover a vintage faith—and why does the church need it today?

In this episode of the Sound Words Podcast, Dr. Cory Marsh discusses his book Recovering a Vintage Faith and explains why Christianity doesn’t need to be reinvented, but recovered. He addresses the pull toward theological minimalism and novelty-driven spirituality, the loss of historic convictions in modern evangelicalism, and how historical theology helps believers remain faithful to Scripture while engaging today’s culture.

Dr. Marsh also clarifies the difference between biblical faith and mere traditionalism, and offers practical steps pastors and believers can take to cultivate a faithful, rooted Christianity.
