Listen "Episode 101 | The Crisis Of Western Culture"
Episode Synopsis
Autumn and Hunter are joined by special guest Philip Moore. Philip is a pastor in the Paris area and serves the Acts 29 Network as Vice President for Global and Director of Europe.They discuss the fact that Western culture (Western Europe, North America, Australia) seems to be going through an “identity crisis.” Philip brings his perspective as a pastor in a secularizing country and points us to two themes he is seeing across Europe, which are also true in America: (1) Hyper-individualism doesn’t just have an impact on individuals and their spiritual well-being. It is also having massive social and political consequences. (2) “Emotional reasoning” has become the main way we think things out, which leads to inconsistency and instability.Having identified these two themes, we then discuss what it looks like to live in a different way as Christians in this kind of culture.Resources mentioned in this episode:"Democracy in America" by Alexis de Tocqueville (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0451531604)"Babel: Around the World in Twenty Languages" by Gaston Dorren (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0802147801)
