Ideas Have Consequences Why America’s Christian Leaders Are Failing: Stockholm Syndrome Christianity | Dr. John West
Episode Summary:
Why are so many Christian leaders thinking like the culture instead of shaping it?
This week, we sit down with Dr. John West, Vice President of the Discovery Institute, to unpack his vitally important new book, Stockholm Syndrome Christianity, and the subtle ways secular worldviews have infiltrated the Church. We explore why a mind-first universe matters, how cultural approval dilutes biblical truth, and what a truly holistic, biblical response to homelessness and poverty requires.
West also issues a needed challenge: Christians must develop deep discernment in an age drowning in information. He ends with a hopeful reminder that the future of the Church is far brighter than it seems.
