True spirituality for Christians is achieved through embracing Christ as Savior, rather than withdrawing from worldly engagement. This approach challenges the prevalent notion in evangelicalism that equates the material world with corruption, promoting a Gnostic mindset. The focus has shifted from the salvation of souls alone to the importance of integrating faith with intellect and culture. This new spiritual Platonism reduces the value of individuals to their souls and neglects their present reality, emphasizing adherence to emotion and rules over doctrinal significance. An authentic Christian life requires acknowledging the implications of orthodoxy in everyday situations.
We are going back to February 3rd, 1991 where the classic hosts of White Horse Inn talk about the search for spirituality in the 90s. If you heard our recent conversation with Dr. Horton about his new book on the origins of the “spiritual but not religious,” you will hear clear connections and echoes about the trends were we talking about 33 years ago and the things we see today.
So what does it mean to be spiritual? On this episode of White Horse in our classic hosts, Michael Horton, Kim Riddlebarger, and Rod Rosenbladt, discuss true spirituality showing that the Reformation directs us back to scripture where faith and practice are centered on the person and work of Jesus Christ.
