E23: Phillip Bethancourt talks ERLC events & seminary programs Canon & Culture Podcast

    • Christianity

Canon & Culture is invaded by Aggies when Phillip Bethancourt, Ph.D. (ERLC Executive VP) joins us to talk about the ERLC’s collaboration with Southern Baptist seminaries. We also get a glimpse into the many events the ERLC has planned for 2016 and learn how Phillip instills Aggie values in his 4 boys while living in Tennessee. (Ok, not really. Maybe.)

Our conversation includes answers to the following questions, among many others:



* What does an executive vice president do, exactly?

* Is seminary only for pastors?

* What unique contributions does the ERLC provide a seminary curriculum?

* What events does the ERLC have planned for 2016?
