Through Theology in a Year with C Michael Patton - 6: Don't Be a Folk Theologian


Listen Later

In this episode of Theology Unplugged's "Through Theology in a Year," we delve into folk theology—what it is, 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. We explore common 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. Join us as we encourage you to examine and think critically about your own beliefs.
