354 Soaking in Divine Spirit (5) Kuyper: Disagreeing with a Beautiful Soul! The Uncensored Unprofessor

- Christianity
Abraham Kuyper (1837-1920) was a beautiful soul. He wanted to bring the grace and light of God to bear on all areas of life: families, schools, and societal institutions. And he even spent four years as the Prime Minister of the Netherlands working to implement the grace of God inside his Danish culture. Later, as a theologian, he had important things to say about the Holy Spirit. I unpack his two specific emphases, interact with those, and offer some critique. In the podcast's opening minutes I recount my attendance at a recent NGO meeting in downtown Boise. What'd that gathering provoke me to consider?
