The God Journey

The Dangers of Dogma (#733)


Listen Later

When you're convinced that your principles are right and every one else who disagrees with you is wrong, you've entered into the dangerous waters of destructive dogma. Whether it be in politics, religion, or science, dogma can blind you to other possibilities and make you manipulate people around you to think like you do. Vince Coakley, host of The Vince Coakley Show in Charlotte, NC, joins his friend Wayne to explore the content of an editorial he shared on his radio show the week before. The constant war between competing dogmas doesn't serve us or Jesus' kingdom well. Even our adherence to principles that are true can substitute for a relationship with he who is the truth. And when our dogma fails, will we thrust our head into the sand and with draw to its false comfort, or will we take the courage to sail beyond "our truth" to find out what really is true?
