My guest in this episode is Dr. Mary Poplin. Several months ago she and I discussed her excellent book Is Reality Secular? As we concluded she mentioned that for the past four decades she has been observing Critical Theories develop in higher education, and was herself an early proponent. For the past three decades she has been working to understand and evaluate Critical Theories from a Christian perspective. Given her background and extensive reflection on this topic, I can think of no one better able to help us understand and evaluate these very popular perspectives reverberating throughout higher education and now our broader culture.Dr. Poplin is a Senior Research Fellow and Professor Emerita at Claremont Graduate University's School of Educational Studies. She has also authored numerous books on Christianity and higher education.In this podcast we discuss:Defining Critical Theory (including Critical Race Theory--CRT)How Critical Theory developed and became dominant in higher educationWhy CRT rejects Martin Luther King's viewsHer journey into feminism and CRT, and why she began to question her viewsWhat CRT gets right--truths CRT is highlightingWhat CRT gets wrong--errors CRT is promotingHow radical feminism started this movement toward divisionHow Critical Theories are changing the university in fundamental waysBlack scholars CRT excludes from the conversation, and whyDifferent approaches to these issues in the humanities, social science, and sciencesWhy Critical Theories are so popular among some Christians, and whether this is justifiedHow students can reflect well and develop their own conclusions about Critical TheoriesHow students can reflected on and engage CRT in their courseworkHow students can reflect on and engage CRT in campus organizationsResources mentioned during our conversation:Mary Poplin, Is Reality Secular?

In this first podcast of our second year, Jordan takes time to learn more about our sponsor Global Scholars. She gets the backstory of how the mission of this podcast and that of Global Scholars complement one another by interviewing Stan, who serves as President and CEO. Along the way are many great stories of how God is at work today in higher education globally. In this podcast we discuss: How professors influence their students to either seek Christ or reject Christ How professors influence culture through what they teach their students The estimated percentage of professors worldwide who are Christians How a Christian professor helped Stan continue in the faith without even know it! Examples of Christian professors integrating biblical truth into their teaching and writing How J.P. has mentored Stan for almost 40 years now, and a similar relationship Jordan has Why listeners may also be interested in Stan's College Faith Podcast Why Stan has hope for the university and future generations of students Some ways God is using professors in the lives Ukrainian and Russian students Other ways God is using Christian professors to share Christ and disciple students Resources mentioned during our conversation: Os Guinness, The Gravedigger Files: Papers on the Subversion of the Modern Church The College Faith Podcast: Conversations at the Intersection of Christian Conviction and Higher Education.

Dr. Mary Poplin was a self-described “radical progressive Marxist”  professor before coming to faith in Christ by meeting Jesus in a dream. Since then she has worked tirelessly to integrate biblical truth and the field of education as a professor of Education at the Claremont Graduate University. She has also authored numerous books on Christianity and higher education. Here we talk about her most recent book Is Reality Secular? Testing the Assumptions of Four Global Worldviews. In this podcast we discuss: Defining a “worldview”  How she identified the four worldviews and decided to write about them Summarizing the four worldviews: Materialism, Secular Humanism, Pantheism, and the Judeo-Christian worldview Why it is so important for Christians to understand these four worldviews Her journey from a radically secular professor to Christ's follower Her time volunteering with Mother Theresa, and how this influenced her How God convicted her to begin teaching what is true, integrating biblical truth into her teaching Her assessment of current secular higher education after 40 years as a professor How she had to rethink ideas of “justice” from a biblical perspective  Her struggle to distinguish between Secular Humanism and Christian thought  How Christianity is excluded from higher education Why professors often promote their worldview as the only answer to life's big questions How her Secular Humanist worldview shaped her thinking about training elementary and secondary school teachers, and how her thinking changed once she became a Christian Advice to students in identifying different worldviews their professors are presenting The best chapters in her book to read for students in the sciences, in the social sciences, the humanities, and the applied sciences How the Judeo-Christian worldview best fosters a flourishing university and society How students can thrive if they have professors promoting other worldviews, and make a difference in the lives of their non-Christian professors How students can find Christian professors like Mary, and the importance of campus fellowships Why going to a “Christian” college doesn't solve the problem for students Why the university is not really a “marketplace of ideas” Why it sometimes makes sense not to go to college right after high school The historic unity of the university, how it is “dis-integrating” and what can be done about it  Why “getting a job” is not the main reason to go to college Why Critical Theory is the opposite of all the university stands for Resources mentioned during our conversation: Mary Poplin, Is Reality Secular?

When Mary Poplin met Mother Teresa, Poplin was looking to understand Mother Teresa's work in purely secular terms. But the life of this mystifying nun refused such categorization. When Poplin returned from India, she realized that a secular telling of Mother Teresa's story would radically distort the reality of her life. At a Veritas Forum from the University of Michigan, Poplin recounts her formative time in Calcutta and her dreams for a more inclusive Academy.
