Ep 133: Dr Koontz and Rev Fisk begin to examine the theological history of America. They talk about an article covering the recently elected board of Ottawa County, Michigan, why it's important not to look down on the political efforts of Evangelical Christians, the cultural bias of Lutheranism towards conformity, and the anti-Christ nature of the current culture.

A Brief History of Power
Every week Dr. Adam Koontz and Rev. Jonathan Fisk check their privilege against the backdrop of the wide and varied annals of history. You don‘t have to believe the Babel about the sons of Noah being a rosetta for understanding the postmodern global politic to agree that an intellectual dark web exists because history always rhymes, no matter what you try to do about it. You might not save the world by listening, citizen, but that doesn‘t mean you won‘t save someone. Because knowing is only the first half of the battle.
