Christine chats with Kate Boyd about the “messy middle” of disentangling faith from culture to gain a clearer vision of God. They lament the “Folk Theology” that permeates both church and culture and explore some false dichotomies such as Eternal Life vs. Abundant Life. Kate also shares how we can draw together the strands of theology, history, and culture and become disciples that believe, act, and become according to the Way of Jesus. <a href='https://theholyshift.org/podcast/'>View Show Notes </a> <a href='https://theholyshift.org/'>Visit the Website </a> <a href='https://theholyshift.org/blog/'>Read the Blog  </a> <a href='https://theholyshift.org/contact/'>Connect with Christine </a> <a href='https://theholyshift.org/a-fun-quiz-and-a-personal-invitation/'>Take the Quiz </a> <a href='https://www.instagram.com/theholyshiftministry/'>Follow on Instagram </a> <a href='https://theholyshift.org/contribute/'>Support the Show </a> Don’t forget to subscribe and leave a positive review to encourage Christine and help other people find this show!<a rel="payment" href="https://www.betterunite.com/theholyshift-donate">Support the Show.</a>This show is listener-supported!
