June 07, 2024 Through Theology in a Year with C Michael Patton - 7: Don't Be a Folk Theologian 2
In session number two of Theology Unplugged's "Through Theology in a Year," we delve deeper into folk theology—what it is, harder examples of it, and how to avoid becoming a folk theologian. Folk theology involves the uncritical acceptance of theological beliefs passed down through culture, family, church, or community. This time, we tackle challenging examples like the belief that angels have wings, that all people are good at heart, that all sins are equal in the sight of God, and that Jesus turned water into grape juice. Get ready to be challenged as we encourage you to examine and think critically about your own beliefs.
