LIVE INTERVIEW with Doug Groothuis on Fire In The Streets, Critical Race Theory, and Political Engagement

Summary

In the summer of 2020, we saw chaos, riots, and violence on American streets. The fire in the streets was paired with the message that Western culture is fundamentally divided into “oppressed” and “oppressor.” Ever since, we have been hearing leaders in government, media, medicine, higher education, and even the church tell us how we ought to right these wrongs through radical programs of antiracism, gender theory, and equity.    Dr. Groothuis’s latest book Fire In The Streets is his response to these ideologies. What can we do amidst all the controversies over race and gender in society today? Do we have anything constructive to offer the world? As Jesus’ followers, we do, and this book shows the way.   I recently had the opportunity to sit down and do a live interview with Dr. Douglas Groothuis on his latest book Fire In The Streets. We had a great conversation covering a wide range of topics including conservatism, Marxism, critical race theory, Christian political engagement, and more.   Douglas Groothuis, Ph.D., is Professor of Philosophy at Denver Seminary, where he has served since 1993. He is the author or co-author of fourteen books, including the best-selling, Unmasking the New Age, the much-used apologetics textbook, Christian Apologetics, and introduction to philosophy, Philosophy in Seven Sentences, a memoir, Walking through Twilight, and a children’s book, I Love You to The Stars (with Crystal Bowman).   Check out the full show notes for this episode: www.aaronshamp.com/podcast/doug-groothuis   HUGE THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS:  - Defend Conference, https://www.defendthefaith.net - Christian Lewis, Attorney at Law, https://www.christianlewislaw.com SUPPORT THIS PODCAST: https://www.aaronshamp.com/support    –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Track: Perseverance — Land of Fire [Audio Library Release] Music provided by Audio Library Plus –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/filterpodcast/message
