235 - Joey On the Defense with a Priest. Evangelicalism & Progressive Theology Backed by Joey

Summary: At the top of the episode, Joey, Jory Micah, and John Mark McMillan continue their discussion on progressive theology, including how progressive the bible (and the Apostle Paul) is. Today’s guest, Father Wesley Walker, is an Anglo-Catholic Priest and host of the Sacramentalists Podcast where a recent episode released posed logical critiques of evangelical churches and progressive theology. Joey found some of these critiques a bit short-sighted and unfair, thus prompting today’s conversation with his friend Father Wesley. Various topics and questions addressed include whether evangelicals’ scripture interpretation is second-rate, whether progressives are sincere in their pursuit for spiritual truth. Do evangelical church systems seek to keep people as spiritual infants to maintain control? Do those in the progressive theology camps excessively celebrates doubt? We also discuss spiritual experience, the bible’s ability(or disability)to connect with modern culture, how scripture gets its authority in the first place, what that authority is, and whether every one picks and chooses how they interact with the Bible.
