What you need to do is not be spiritual, but be spiritually right. You have a right to believe whatever you choose, but what you believe must be right.

Postmodernism and Christianity

Is there any consistency between Postmodernism and Christianity?

Postmodernism brings us two things:

  1. No truth, no meaning, no certainty.
  2. The denegration of propositional truth. Language is not at the command of the author. The interpretation is at the command of the reader.
You take no truth, no meaning, no certainty and that the objective truth of the writer is gone, what's left of the Bible? What's left of Christianity? So, there is no common ground in their epistemology (The base from which they come to truth.) However, Postmodernism has done something positive for us...


Postmodernism reminds us of two very important things in life:

  1. The Importance of the Story. There is a story that people love to hear. If we do preaching only at a cerebral level and just at a level of logic and reason, without the story, it will come unhinged and unmoored.

  2. The Importance of Community. Here, the church has a lot to learn. The church sometimes has become ruggedly individualistic and forgotten the community. In fact, those who are hurting or those who have blown it or those who have made mistakes, we are the first one to pounce on them and pulverize them and pummel them to the ground when we should be the ones waiting for them to come so that we can help them in their need.
