Idolizing Power

from Naming the Real · host Brandon Cook

Religious and political movements often begin with transformative vision. But what happens when preserving the institution becomes more important than embodying its values? Using evangelicalism as a case study, Brandon explores fallen powers, institutional loyalty, and freedom, asking when does belonging becomes idolatry—and what our allegiances prevent us from seeing that idolatry has happened to us.
