In this powerful conversation, apologist and author Alisa Childers discusses the dangers of progressive Christianity, how to respond to deconstruction, and why every Christian needs to be equipped to defend their faith.
KEY TOPICS COVERED:
• What is Progressive Christianity and how to identify it
• The three expressions of progressive theology (theological, cultural, political)
• How deconstruction is impacting young adults and families
• Why TikTok theology is undermining biblical truth
• The intellectual shallowness of modern church culture
• Practical apologetics tips for everyday Christians
• How parents can disciple their deconstructing children
• Why asking good questions is more important than having all the answers
KEY QUOTES: "I'll have moms come up to me and say, 'My young adult child is deconstructing... What's the best resource that I can give them?' And I always say, 'You're not going to like my answer. It's you.'"
"Progressive Christianity is the idea that Christianity itself is progressing... Christianity is always arriving but it never arrives."
"You don't have to be an apologist or theologian to engage with people. You just need to know how to ask a few good questions."
