The Stages of Faith
Kyle, Doc, and Brian sit down to unpack Brianโs recent conversation with Dr. Jim Reiterย aboutย The Critical Journey, one way to describeย our spiritual adventure.
Itโs a passionate and animated dialogue, and it covers three main questions:
1. If modern church institutions help us prepare and walk through the first three stages of our discipleship but donโt help or guide us into the last three, what is the impact of that void on individuals, the church, and culture? How does it impact The Great Omission?
2. There have been several recent high-profile celebrity pastor scandals in the U.S. These men preached the Gospel and claimed biblical accuracy for decades. What does that say about โbeing rightโ compared to โbeing formed”?
3. Jim brought up the spiritual discipline of “cinema divina” (and Kyle happily jumped out of his seat). What does it mean to look for Jesusโ speaking to the world through means many consider “secularโ or โbad”?
Lots of good material to discuss, debate, and argue with your friends!
This episode continues the discussion from Ep 98.
