239. The CHURCH Might Be The Greatest Cause Of Atheism
Manage episode 424721558 series 1247927
Brennan Manning said “The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today is Christians: who acknowledge Jesus with their lips, walk out the door, and deny Him by their lifestyle. That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelievable.” With multiple mega-church leaders in the headlines, including the arrest of "Bling Bishop" Lamor Whitehead for financial crimes, and Gateway Church founder Robert Morris's child sex abuse allegations, among a seemingly endless stream of others, it's not surprising that some would become disillusioned about their involvement in church and maybe even ditch their faith altogether. How have rigid doctrines and opposition to scientific advancements contributed to growing skepticism among the educated and younger generations? Is there a way for the church to reconcile with its past and present challenges to rebuild trust and relevance in a rapidly changing world? We talk about this and more in episode 239. Obviously, our individual perspectives are limited and there are many others so share your own get into it!
