- In episode 4 of Building Christian Communities, Pastor Doug Wilson of Moscow ID discusses the topics of christian culture, red pill reformers and revolutionaries, ways christian culture building go wrong and more
😂😂😂 he is right about us not knowing anything beyond the founding of our local churches. 😂😂😂
This was a great episode thinking through how to build "thick" community and culture. Loving this series!
Hey Doug if you added 100, 000 lutherans to South Dakota nothing would change much. There are many Lutherans in SD.
Growing up in SD in a Mennonite and then an Assemblies of God church, I concur. Additionally, I have several family and friends who are Lutherans there. Some of the most socially liberal. Look at MN. Lutherans let that happen. Very passive IMHO
The “communities” series has been excellent. Thanks for doing this.
Great interview
Good stuff
Thanks!
Wow, ty so much!
Pretty stoked for 'cousin' Rory 👍👍
Cousin? 😅
Maybe you mean Grandson 😂

Can someone share a link to the intro hymn!? I can’t find the precise version

Just saw it in the comment below too. Thank you. Do you get this question in every video?
I'm here!
There she is!
Where can I find the intro song?

Well then, read the page-turner novel "Where Do We Go Now, LORD? - Burke." Explains much. Very much. A fun read, yet quite ameliorating. Enjoy!
The revival of Christian Reconstructionism😂
The "invisible church" is a novel idea that isn't working out.
Once you spend a minute looking into the visible Church, you find 2000 years of hagiography to include thousands of people who are remembered precisely because they were willing to die. Once you realize even Stalin couldn't stamp out the visible Church any more than Diocletian could, it puts our current predicament into perspective.
Once you attend a Pascha service and hug and kiss three times every single person who attended, you lose all desire for a community. You have it.
This does exist in the Amish community. They are living a uniquely Christian lifestyle that has very effectively resisted adapting to modern life. They care for their elders, are incredibly healthy, dont consume digital media. They dont pay social security nor do they get paid by social security.
Yes and they don’t engage with the outer culture. We can learn from them, but we can’t copy them.
We need you to expand on not moving y’all boomers off to the side. In my world most boomers haven’t challenged themselves to grow in the last 20 years and it shows. It’s hard to take orders from people who are judging the terrain from a map that is 20 years old. (Metaphorically speaking)
There are many great things about Doug Wilson's teachings, but 35:53 regarding "asking for permission" to start a book group is an extremely serious and dangerous flaw in his view of authority and ecclesiology. Christians do not need permission to gather together and study a book. I hope and pray he is corrected there soon so he can be more fruitful for the glory of Christ.
There are many reasons to ask the elders about this…. One is so that people are not reading heretical stuff and to be open and communicative with the Church a elders since they are all members of the local church. It is a sign of respect.
Eschatology does matter. All scripture was fulfilled in the first century ushering in the forever Spirit Kingdom from generation to generation. Ephesians 3:21
Doug Wilson wouldn't defend Vermont and is as unstable as water.
The American Revolution laid the groundwork for the destruction of Christian culture in the United States.
Shift in Values and Governance: The American Revolution introduced principles of secular governance and individual rights that prioritized freedom from religious interference in governmental affairs. This shift away from a religiously oriented society towards a secular republic marked a departure from the earlier Christian-centered worldview of colonial America.
Separation of Church and State: The establishment of a secular government and the principle of separation of church and state meant that religious institutions no longer wielded direct political power or influence over public policy. This separation undermines the traditional role of Christianity in shaping societal norms and values.
Rise of Religious Pluralism: The Revolution and its aftermath led to a diversification of religious beliefs and practices in America, as immigrants from diverse backgrounds contributed to the religious landscape. This pluralism challenged the dominance of Christianity as the predominant cultural force in American society.
Evolution of Social Norms: Over time, societal changes and evolving cultural norms, including debates over social issues such as secularism, religious tolerance, and individual autonomy, have contributed to a decline in adherence to traditional Christian values and ethics.
Debates Over Moral Foundation:: Contemporary discussions and debates over moral and ethical issues, including those related to family, sexuality, and gender roles, have highlighted tensions between religious teachings and secular ideologies, furthering the erosion of Christian culture.
In summary, the American Revolution paved the way for the transformation of American society from a Christian-centric culture to a secular and pluralistic one.
C. Gregg Singer the author of “A Theological Interpretation of American History” would agree with your comment. Excellent book one of my all time favorites. It is an eye opener. Highly recommend it IF you can find it. It, unfortunately is out of print. You might be able to contact P&R publishing they might have a copy lying around.
@@craig3540 Thank you. I found it on Amazon and ordered it.
I’ve recently become symptomatic toward this view. The Bible does say to “honor the king”
There was definitely a strain of New Atlantis, enlightenment/reason, “freedom from God” types during the American Revolution. Thomas Jefferson/Thomas Paine
But there was enough of a Christian culture that they had to sell it as “freedom to God is from tyranny”
Unlike the French Revolution or later communist revolutions
@grantguidroz7640 Rebellion and violence are not the Christian way. The Jews expected a military/political Messiah and rejected the Prince of Peace. Jesus, His disciples and the early Church never practiced or taught rebellion or violence against the evil Roman Empire.

Reminds me how David judged the guy killed Saul in 2 Samuel
“And David said unto him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thine hand to destroy the Lord's anointed?”
