The West’s Theological Drift - Ep 51

What if the God many Christians in the West have been taught to believe in isn’t the God revealed in Jesus? In this conversation, Baxter and Jason trace a sobering but hopeful story: how the Church in the West has gradually lost its living vision of the relational Trinity—and how that loss shaped everything from our personal faith to church culture and theology.

We explore the influence of Augustine and Greek philosophy, the seismic impact of the Enlightenment, and how liberal theology and fundamentalism—though seemingly opposed—both contributed to a view of God that’s more abstract than relational, more distant than present.

This isn’t just a history lesson but an ongoing conversation as we rediscover the God who is Father, Son, and Spirit—eternally loving, self-giving, and present.
