EP01 | The Decline of Theology in the Church and Culture with Roger Olson

from It's a Theological World After All · host Joshua R. Farris

Is theology disappearing from the church and public life? In this conversation with Roger Olson, we explore the decline of theology in evangelical culture, the rise of anti-intellectualism, and how “feelings over doctrine” has reshaped faith communities. From the 1966 Time cover declaring “God is Dead,” to seminaries closing their doors, to personal stories of rejection for being “too theological,” Olson traces how we entered a post-theological era—and why he still can’t stop doing theology.📘 Check out my book here: https://shorturl.at/u3MGp
