18. Deconstructing Hell Pt. 1–Definitions and Theories of Hell

For many who deconstruct their Evangelical faith, the topic of hell is a hot button topic—for good reason. The historical, logical, and moral issues surrounding the topic of hell are important for any Christian to dissect, whether they are deconstructing or not. For today’s episode, we discuss words and phrases that are commonly translated as “hell” in the Bible or are closely associated with the concept of hell. We also look at three common Christian views of hell: infernalism, annhialationism, and universalism. Have we been taught hell all wrong? Join us, Liz Mall (Biola M.A. in Christian Apologetics) and historian Jenny White (Harvard M.A. in Museum Studies) as we begin to deconstruct hell together by asking the tough questions and providing resources to get you started on your own journey of digging below the surface of the Bible’s toughest passages.
