Omg. The "rabbi" he was talking with was actually the charismatic prophet and messianic Christian conspiracist Jonathan Cahn.

The fact that Stoicism is receiving a renewed popular reception and Aristotle is not. This is perplexing to me.

Finally reading Gutierrez deeply has made me very cognizant of how much political theology operates according to a kind of moral perfectionism. This is directly opposed to the historical enmeshment that liberation demands.

Thanks, Austin! Yes, God Gave Rock and Roll to You argues that American evangelicalism has been "Pentecostalized" through song. In the aughts, this was a source of frustration for Reformed folks like John Piper. www.amazon.com/God-Gave-Roc...

It’s hard to overstate what a strange bird charismatic reformed churches are. It wasn’t until I read Carlos Eire’s “The Flew” that I came to understand just how central cessationism was for broad swaths of the reformation. to be undone by some excellent key changes.

This is actually in many ways a story about music. Reformed evangelicals started listening to and singing Pentecostal and Charismatic music. This had observable effects on their theology and ecumenical attitude. @drleahpayne.bsky.social is the real authority here.

Last week I had the honor of serving as the teaching associate for an intensive course taught by Sarah Coakley, one of my favorite theologians. It was an absolute honor and a masterclass in both course preparation and mystical theology.

Case #147 why Christian Nationalism is an empty term with less than zero explanatory value. I have yet to find a conversation where the CN framing generates more light than heat.

He get’s a lot of flack for the “sloppy wet kiss” line, but John Mark McMillan has put out some of the best indie worship music of the last decade. Everything from Borderlands onward is absolutely indispensable for my faith.

“Christian Nationalism” as a term has stigmatized a lot and explained very little. I’m ready to see it retired so we can more closely examine the four or five discrete theopolitical it has tried to name.

Secular people who are under the illusion that they have left secularism are some of our most unpredictable religious and political actors. Studying them is difficult because scholars tend to treat them with either too much cynicism or too much deference.

Extremely funny to me how much of the 2000s post liberal project concluded in some version of “ Christian small liberal arts college, but with elite signifiers.”
