[The Church Series] Will Progressive Christianity Destroy The Church?

<p>I want to talk about something that’s been on my mind for a while. Some time ago, I watched a commentary by a ‘Christian pastor’ (link in show notes) that totally shocked me. In fact, I haven’t really stopped thinking about it since.</p> <p>I found it disturbing; equal parts ridiculous and horrifying, and I really couldn’t believe it was being presented under the guise of legitimate Christianity.</p> <p>For me, it highlighted a disturbing and, frankly, heartbreaking direction that modern Christianity, or at least a part of it, has taken; a wild trip sideways down the labyrinth-like rabbit hole of progressive Christianity. And I believe this pervasive ideology, left unchecked, could signal the death knell of the church as we know it.</p> <p>I think the church is facing one of her greatest challenges yet; not through external persecution as in times past, but through subtle, internal perversion. There is a desperate need for discernment and a deep commitment to the gospel of the Bible, in doctrine and practice.</p> <p>Will progressive Christianity destroy the church?</p> <p><a href='https://www.carrielloydshaw.com/will-progressive-christianity-destroy-the-church/'>https://www.carrielloydshaw.com/will-progressive-christianity-destroy-the-church/</a></p> <p>Show Notes: </p> <p>YouTube commentary by Brandan Robertson: <a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbP7oMte9sk'>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbP7oMte9sk</a></p> <p><a href='https://www.bethelbeaverton.org/progressive-christianity'>https://www.bethelbeaverton.org/progressive-christianity</a></p> <p><a href='https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2019/05/progressive-christians-abortion-jes-kast/590293/'>https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2019/05/progressive-christians-abortion-jes-kast/590293/</a></p>
