Listen "Is this the death of evangelism?"
Episode Synopsis
Tim returns with Joel and Stu to examine the late nineties and early-2000s. The speed of change within culture continued to speed up and the challenge, as always was for the church to keep up. They look at different reactions to those changes including the immersive evangelical counter-culture, Christian schools, the ministries of Rick Warren and Bill Hybels and the shift towards a different version of political engagement.02:07 Cultural Artefact - Veggie Tales, DC Talk & Newsboys07:33 Tim's experience and the events of 1990s16:29 The Christian Right18:36 Culture changes accelerating & reacting to youth31:56 Influence of Rick Warren & Bill Hybels46:15 The Evangelical SubcultureWatch this episode on YouTubeDISCUSSED ON THIS EPISODEJesus Freak, by DC TalkBreakfast, by NewsboysVeggie TalesColumbine High School MassacreMarilyn Manson9/11 attacksConcept of the End of HistoryThe Nineties: A Book, by Chuck KlostermanPort Arthur MassacreGeorge W.
