The Happy Rant
Barnabas Piper, Ronnie Martin and Ted KluckEpisode #435 - Church Imitating Culture, Goblin Mode, and the Nuance of Anxiety
April 18, 2023 ● 42 minShare this episode
In this episode Ted, Ronnie, and Barnabas wander to and fro through a variety of topics:
- Everything is grim and nothing is funny
- Is the church 7-10 years behind culture or 70 years behind it?
- How the church can respond to culture instead of imitating it
- Goblin mode: the squalor of soul
- The monolith of anxiety and how we can't approach it with nuance
- Redefining failure and disappointment
