Über diesen Titel
In the early 21st century, sociologists uncovered a silent shift in American religion. It wasn’t a decline in belief, but a mutation. They called it Moralistic Therapeutic Deism (MTD).In this episode, we dive into the "Great Decoupling"—the separation of historic Christian terminology from its actual theological substance. Based on the landmark National Study of Youth and Religion, we explore how a "parasitic" civil religion has colonized the church, replacing the Triune God with a "Divine Butler" and the call to holiness with a desire for happiness.We cover:• The Diagnosis: How MTD operates as a "misbegotten stepcousin" of Christianity that inoculates people against the true Gospel.• The 5 Tenets: From the "Watchmaker God" to the "Soteriology of Niceness."• The Contrast: Why the Bible’s call to "take up your cross" is incompatible with the MTD goal of "feeling good about oneself."• The Cure: How the church can move from being an association of niceness back to the Body of Christ.Join us for a deep theological and sociological analysis of the faith many practice without even knowing it.
