TSR sits down (via Zoom) with Dr. Carl Trueman to discuss his latest book. Come join The Socially Remote!

In this episode, TSR talks with Dr. Carl Trueman about his most recent book, The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self: Cultural Amnesia, Expressive Individualism, and the Road to Sexual Revolution, which looks at persons and events over the last 200 or so years that have led to a world where the phrase "I am a woman trapped in a man's body" makes sense to a growing percentage of its population. Dr. Trueman ("Carl" to friends like us) defines several key terms and concepts in his book and sets the stage for the second half of our discussion, where we will look at some of the key historical players who have helped shaped modern self-identity and talk through how the church can speak to the increasingly secular and sexualized culture in which it finds itself.

TSR continues our discussion with David and April McWhite about lessons they learned on the mission field that are applicable to all believers. Come join The Socially Remote!

In this episode, TSR continues our discussion with David and April McWhite. The McWhites share lessons they learned while doing overseas missions. We talk about how the future of missions will more than likely look like "tentmakers" advancing the Gospel in their workplaces and, perhaps, God using their careers to move them into strategic locations. We also discussed some do's and don't's for people to consider as they prepare to go overseas.

TSR continues their interview with Neil Shenvi (@NeilShenvi) and Pat Sawyer (@RealPatSawyer) about Critical Theory and the Christian. Come join The Socially Remote!

In this episode, TSR follows up their critically acclaimed episode on the Foundations of Critical Theory by considering how the Christian should think critically on this topic. It's a critical conversation to have, and two critical points emerged from our discussion. First, keep first things first. Continue in the Gospel and don't be taken in by the assertion that the Gospel of Jesus isn't enough to remedy our sin problems. Second, even if you disagree with the ideology behind much of what is taking place in our culture, it is still the Christian's responsibility to listen to those who are hurting and respond with Christ's love in every interaction.
