Mission Focused Men for Christ Thinking Biblically About Critical Race Theory
Episode Summary. The rising generation of Christians is rightly concerned about the link between Christianity and the oppression of racism. The problem is that many ideologies claiming to overthrow oppression are based upon destructive, anti-biblical worldviews. As the leaders of our homes and churches, how can we guide those under our care to oppose racism passionately, but be discerning enough to reject ideologies, that are not only false but have proven to be destructive? That is our goal as we examine Critical Race Theory in this episode.
For Further Prayerful Thought:
- As you have seen aspects of Critical Theory being promoted in your experience, why do you think that Christians might unthinkingly buy into it?
- What part of Critical Theory do you think contradicts the teaching of Scripture most severely?
- Which principles for arguing against the Critical Theory worldview in the public arena stood out to you? What additional ideas do you have?
