    Moving Past Cancel Culture to Meaningful Conversations: A Conversation with Sean McDowell

    Episode Notes When it comes to controversial topics, it’s tempting to go to one of two extremes—to engage people with vitriol, anger, and contentiousness in our determination to make them see things our way or to totally avoid talking about important yet potentially controversial subjects altogether in an attempt to “keep the peace.” Neither is a viable option for followers of Jesus. In this episode, Dr. Sean McDowell joins Dr. Keith Plummer to talk about having meaningful and respectful conversations with those with whom we have strong disagreements.

    The Wolf in Their Pockets: A Conversation with Chris Martin [Re-Release]

    Episode Notes Chris Martin, author of The Wolf in Their Pockets: 13 Ways the Social Internet Threatens the People You Lead, returns to the podcast to talk with Dr. Keith Plummer about why Christian leaders need to understand how our relationship with social media changes the ways we think, feel, and believe. Chris explains why he calls social media “the most pervasive discipleship force in the world right now;” details the wrong ways we approach social media; and suggests how pastors, ministry leaders, parents, and teachers can foster cultures that better enable believers to resist the seductive snares of online life. Even if you’re not on social media, you’re affected by it somehow, so there’s something for everyone to take away from this conversation.

    Keeping the Trinity Simple: A Conversation with James Dolezal

    Episode Notes Central to the historic Christian faith is the confession that our God is triune, one in being and three in persons. Admittedly, this truth exceeds our ability to comprehend. But we shouldn’t allow that to keep us from seeking to understand what we can of what God has revealed of himself. To that end, Dr. James Dolezal, professor of theology at Cairn University, joins Dr. Keith Plummer to discuss his chapter on divine simplicity and the Trinity in IVP's 2024 award-winning book On Classical Trinitarianism.

    Untrustworthy: A Conversation with Bonnie Kristian [Re-Release]

    Episode Notes Seasoned journalist Bonnie Kristian believes America is in the midst of a knowledge crisis that the church cannot afford to ignore. In fact, she thinks it could be the most pressing and unprecedented challenge for contemporary discipleship. Her book Untrustworthy: The Knowledge Crisis Breaking Our Brains, Polluting Our Politics, and Corrupting Christian Community describes the multiple forces contributing to an atmosphere characterized by mounting misinformation, mistrust, and polarization. Bonnie joins Dr. Keith Plummer to discuss why Christians need to understand the crisis and what measures we can take to resist it and its destructive effects.

    When AI Means Artificial Intimacy: A Conversation with Michael Sacasas

    Episode Notes For several years, Michael Sacasas, executive director of the Christian Study Center of Gainesville, has reflected on and written about the effects of emerging technologies on us individually and societally. His work explores how our interactions with technology affect how we answer the questions of what it means to be human and the nature of the "good life." In this episode, he talks with Dr. Keith Plummer about how his interest in technology and theology arose, the Christian study center movement, and the problems with our becoming increasingly acclimated to treating computers as suitable conversation partners.

    You're Only Human [And That's Alright!]: A Conversation with Kelly M. Kapic [Re-Release]

    Episode Notes “Gift” and “good” aren’t words that usually come to mind when we think about our limitations. Dr. Kelly M. Kapic, author of You’re Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God’s Design and Why That’s Good News, thinks this reveals a serious theological problem, writing that denying our finitude “distorts our view of God and what Christian spirituality should look like.” In this episode he joins Dr. Keith Plummer to explain how.

    My Rescue from Psychedelic Devastation: A Conversation with Ashley Lande

    Episode Notes Disenchanted by the atheism she embraced in her teenage years, Ashley Lande turned to the world of psychedelic drugs and Eastern mysticism in search of meaning, satisfaction, and spiritual reality. Though her desires went unfulfilled, and she experienced the very opposite of what she was looking for, she kept returning to mushrooms and LSD. In her book _The Thing that Would Make Everything Okay Forever, _she writes: “Psychedelics made me believe I could have it all. Glory without submission. Transcendence without descent. Knowledge without trauma. Freedom without discipline. New life without death. It was all a lie.” She joined Dr. Keith Plummer to discuss her journey and how the Savior she long resisted found and delivered her.

    Ministry in a Post-Everything World: A Conversation with Brad Edwards

    Episode Notes The velocity with which culture changes challenges evangelism and discipleship—something Brad Edwards, planter and lead pastor of The Table Church in Lafayette, Colorado, thinks about a lot. In this episode, he joined Dr. Keith Plummer to discuss lessons he continues to learn while ministering where people are “open to the idea of God but very turned off to the idea of church.” Other subjects they discuss are anti-institutionalism, spiritual consumerism, and why Christians need to consider the formative powers of our technological practices. Brad also briefly previews his forthcoming book, The Reason for Church: Why the Body of Christ Still Matters in an Age of Anxiety, Division, and Radical Individualism.
