  • Outstanding

    This is an outstanding podcast. I grew up in a home with a father who went to seminary in the late 60’s early 70’s. I grew up on Fosdick’s theology!! Praise God I left that theology and found the truth in Christ. This podcast is helping me connect the dots between the liberal theology I grew up with and Christianity.

  • The Christianity and Liberalism series is remarkable

    This is well produced and has some deeply insightful perspectives applying one of the most important books of the last century to this century where the subissues are different but not the core issue. You can have Christianity or (theological) Liberalism but not both.
