Podcasts about radical christianity

In this episode I welcome back long-time friend of the show Cody Cook to discuss his brand-new book The Anarchist Anabaptist: Essays on Radical Christianity and Freedom. In this book he explores the relationship between his Anabaptist faith and libertarian political philosophy. We discuss the meaning and history of the Anabaptist movement, its relationship to the wider Protestant world, and the differences of opinion between various Anabaptist groups. Cody explains the difference between pacifism and non-violence, paedo- and credobaptism, and why many modern Anabaptists are politically progressive. We discuss the John Howard Yoder scandal and how it impacted his legacy, and Cody critiques the political perspectives of N.T. Wright and Michael Bird.

Is your faith shaped more by culture and politics than by Christ? Have you ever wondered if there's a way to follow Jesus that's truly countercultural—one that resists the pull of both left and right?   In this episode of The Bad Roman Podcast, host Craig Hargis sits down with author and researcher Cody Cook to unpack the radical history and modern relevance of Anabaptism. Cody shares insights from his new book, The Anarchist Anabaptist, diving into what made this movement so disruptive—believers' baptism, nonviolence, separation from the state—and why their bold commitment to Jesus still challenges mainstream Christianity today.   What's in it for you?

Radical Christianity on American soil is the proper response to the lies of Islam, as well as mass migration, invaders, jihadists, etc., and here are four reasons why.

Challenging the Status QuoWe live in a world where the term “radical” often evokes images of extremism and division and has developed a rather nasty reputation in our culture since the '60s. Therefore, it may come as a surprise that at the very heart of Christian discipleship lies a call to a radically different way of life. This radical lifestyle is not about taking up arms or shouting louder than the voices of opposition. Instead, it's about embracing a radical love, a radical commitment, radical obedience and sacrifice, and a radical transformation that only comes from fully embracing the life and teachings of Jesus Christ himself— who was the greatest radical who ever lived.That's right. Let that thought sink in for a moment.What is a Radical, and Why Should I Care?But first, to set the stage, let's define what the word “radical” means. According to Webster, “radical” is ‌defined as “something (or someone) new and different in contrast to what is traditional or ordinary.” In other words, being “radical” is a relative term based on a comparison with what society deems common or ordinary or what we refer to as the “status quo.” This means it is the ordinary and traditional aspects of a society that determine, right or wrong, if something (teachings or ideas) or someone (individual or actions) is radical or revolutionary. Consider that last statement carefully. Note where the power to make the determination lies (mainstream opinion and not actual truth). Do you see the problem?When a culture refers to individuals or their beliefs and practices as radical, it means they are considered extreme, controversial, and even dangerous to the mainstream. And since they could harm the status quo by threatening change or something even more frightening, accountability— those accused of being radical are often marginalized, excluded, punished, canceled, and eventually eliminated for the good of the whole, or at least for the good of the power elites who govern the whole.But What About Jesus?This compels us to address the question nobody wants to ask. Namely, is it OK, maybe even expected, for the Christian life to be viewed as radical by our lost and dying culture that rejects the claims and teachings of Christ? And if so, are our Christian ideas and actions supposed to challenge the status quo of our society (both secular and sacred) at this point in history? Or do we just blend into the woodwork and hope the culture will leave us alone to do the religious things we want? Which is it? You can't have it both ways. But we all know that.To answer this question, we need only look at Jesus' teachings and how the mainstream reacted to His life. Were He and His message considered radical and revolutionary by the Jewish establishment of His time? Was He viewed as a threat, a danger to the profitable inner workings of their religious complex? How did they view, for example, His cleaning out the corruption in the Temple by overturning the tables of the money changers (Matt. 21:12-13)? How did they respond when He called them out as hypocrites and encouraged the people to follow God and not man-made traditions (Matt. 23)? And what did they finally do to silence His voice? Exactly.It would appear, from any honest assessment, that the powers-to-be viewed Jesus as a radical and revolutionary and, as such, had Him put to death. And we are called to follow in His footsteps, to be the light of the world (which exposes darkness, John 3:19) and the salt of the earth (Matt. 5:13). Remember?We Follow a Risen Savior (Who Was a Radical)Consider a brief overview of the radical life and teachings of our Lord. Let's begin with some of His radical...

In this conversation, Todd McGowan and Peter Rollins help us unpack the meaning of the following quote from McGowan's book on Hegel: "The embrace of Christianity radicalizes Hegel as a thinker and enables him to theorize the radicality of Christianity." We are also joined by David Roberts.

IntroductionJust how radical was Paul?  How about the radical things God does in people's lives – like a great deliverance from tyranny only to end up in a desert?Definition of radical in the Webster's dictionary:  Thoroughgoing or extreme, especially as regards change from accepted or traditional forms; forming a basis or foundation; of or going to the root or origin.From Corinth to Antioch, end of the second missionary journeyWhat stands out?His leadership training method is very successful: P and A are entrusted to plant church in Ephesus.After leaving the Jews (for the 2nd time) he heads back to the synagogue and keeps a vow by shaving his head. The issues of culture and seeing the authority of scripture in the light of a personal relationship with Jesus.Why no reports on the rest of the journey to Antioch? The reports to the senders to give an account of the growth of the church.Accountability Acts 18: 24-28Paul's third missionary journey begins with a quick introductionA brief excursion to Ephesus with the introduction of ApollosAn eloquent and learned expositor Demonstrates boldnessOnly knows baptism of John – repentance Shown a more accurate way – the SpiritWhat about us and our growing relationship with God? Where do we need to become challenged to a more accurate.“Now He also spoke a parable to them: “A person who is blind cannot guide another who is blind, can he? Will they not both fall into a pit? A student is not above the teacher; but everyone, when he has been fully trained, will be like his teacher.”Luke 6:39-40 NASB2020“And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to follow all that I commanded you; and behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.””Matthew 28:18-20 NASB2020“So then each one of us will give an account of himself to God. Therefore let's not judge one another anymore, but rather determine this: not to put an obstacle or a stumbling block in a brother's or sister's way.”Romans 14:12-13 NASB2020“I glorified You on the earth by accomplishing the work which You have given Me to do.”John 17:4 NASB2020

In previous episodes we have suggested the importance to push beyond deconstruction into a process of reconstruction.  We believe such a move to not only be possible, but helpful.  What does such a move look like?  How can we talk about it, what sort of language best helps us to identify such a disruptive yet exciting process?Join us in this episode as we focus on the sort of speech that can help us better understand the process of deconstruction and reconstruction, outlining the helpful "messiness" that characterizes the non-binary speech we recommend for helping us understand the wonderfully mystical process of deconstruction and reconstruction.

Deconstruction is a word that one finds floating around in Christian circles quite a bit lately.  For some, the term promises liberating possibilities, an open door allowing fresh air into a context that has long felt stifled.  For others, the deconstruction process is dangerous, something that provokes deep anxiety, a move that threatens an unnecessary (and perhaps heretical) dismantling of valuable, historic non-negotiables at the heart of the Christian faith.With that in mind, in this episode, we invite YOU along for a closer look at the deconstruction process.  We explore some of its connotations and we welcome the journey it entails.  We dive below the surface, peeling back some of the layers found in the idea, complete with insight into why deconstruction is often necessary, what is involved, and how it might be approached in a healthy manner.  We hope this discussion invites new questions and new insights for those who are curious about helpfully, and faithfully, navigating the deconstruction process.Contact Us!Twitter: @PodLmdFacebook: facebook.com/LMDPodWeb: lmdpod.buzzsprout.comEmail: lmdpod@gmail.comAs always we want these to be informed by YOU, so let us know what you think, send us your thoughts, and we may even try a few! 

Get ready for part 3 of our Evangelicalism series where JM, JSF, and Dr. Lindy Backues discuss deconstruction in light of our context in Evangelical America today.  This conversation ranges from discussing why deconstruction can sometimes be healthy to a deep dive into the phenomenon itself in with helpful language to make sense of its natural place within a faith journey.

Romans 12:1-2 | Andrew Purchase

Join us for our first Friday release for the second episode in the "Evangelicalism" module, where Lindy, JSF, and JM dive deep into a conversation on "Christianese" in America today (yes we know--very "meta'). It is commonplace knowledge that how we as humans talk and the language we use affects how we see the world around us.  In short, the language we use helps shape the way we experience life.  An offshoot of this is – especially for those of us from the Evangelical world – the language we use easily ends up walling us off from real life, prompting us to offer simplistic answers to difficult questions.  Worse yet, it often prohibits us from admitting when our language does not match the reality we encounter.  We often come off to others as being phony and afraid to discuss topics of deep importance.  In this episode, we take a look at how this works, and then we broaden our conversation to include a deeper look at the way we live.  We conclude that we must learn to speak more clearly, be more transparent, and open up more fully to important – even challenging – facets of life, especially those related to our relationship to God through Jesus.  In short, we must avoid using religious platitudes or holy words that cloud sincere attempts to understand the puzzles of our world, even when that sort of speech uttered or a life lived makes us uncomfortable.As always we want these to be informed by YOU, so let us know what you think, send us your thoughts,  we may even try a few! Contact Us!Twitter: @PodLmdFacebook: facebook.com/LMDPodWeb: lmdpod.buzzsprout.comEmail: lmdpod@gmail.com

TITLE: Real Transformation, Radical Christianity TEXT: Romans 12:14-16 The Gospel compels us to… 1 RESPOND RADICALLY – V.14 Luke 6:28 – “…bless those who curse you, [here it is] pray for those who abuse you.” John Piper– “If we are going to be treated unjustly, and even hurt unjustly for Christ's sake, and yet bless our adversaries and pray for them, then our natural obsession with self-preoccupation and self-infatuation and self-exaltation must die. But that death will accomplish nothing by itself. It must be replaced by Christ-preoccupation and Christ-infatuation and Christ-exaltation. That's what faith is: beholding and embracing the all-satisfying treasure of Christ.” 2 SHOW SYMPATHY – V.15 3 PRACTICE HUMILITY – V.16 Three convictions that flow from V.16…Convictions of a church that is serious about humility: CONVICTION #1 - WE WILL NOT BE DIVIDED, WE WILL HAVE THE MIND-SET OF UNITY - V.16a CONVICTION #2 - WE WILL NOT BECOME PROUD, WE WILL ASSOCIATE WITH EVERYONE EQUALLY - V.16b CONVICTION #3 - WE WILL NOT BE FOOLISH, WE WILL SUBMIT OURSELVES TO BIBLICAL AUTHORITY - V.16c

Welcome back for season 2 of the Like-Minded Deviants Podcast! We begin season 2 with the first in our multi-episode module on Evangelism. In this episode, we take a biographical and personal look at what has come to be called Evangelicalism in the West--predominantly the cultural phenomena in the United States.  Where did it come from?  What was it in response to?  What did it do?  How has it changed?  JM and JSF give us some insight into their own family histories as they have woven in and out of the history of Evangelicalism over the last several decades.  Lindy throws into the mix of this history, baggage, and mix of blessings an older but somewhat different perspective that he has experienced.As always we want these to be informed by YOU, so let us know what you think, send us your thoughts,  we may even try a few! Contact Us!Twitter: @PodLmdFacebook: facebook.com/LMDPodWeb: lmdpod.buzzsprout.comEmail: lmdpod@gmail.com

A great message from special guest speaker, Pastor Al Brice from Covenant Love Church in Fayetteville, NC.

Bill continues our series, "Hope in Exile," in 1 Peter 2:18-25.

Used to describe hospitals, heroes on the local news, and the people who stop to help you change a tire, most people, even many non-Christians, are familiar with and even use the phrase - Good Samaritan. If everyone is aware of the story, what does it still have to teach us? How can it call us into the broad and radical idea of love that Jesus is speaking about? Can we move beyond religious obligation and allowed ourselves to live a life of radical love? Hear about to make this radical love a part of your life.
