Into the Light, Part 1
from Ronnie McBrayer · host Ronnie McBrayer
"Saul of Tarsus was a fundamentalist; and very little can be more damaging, more hurtful and harmful, than hard-shelled, hard-hearted fundamentalism. Fundamentalism is spirituality gone wrong; it is piety turned sour. It is a form of compromised, contaminated religion that has substituted right living with rule-following. It is fueled by impending judgment and certain punishment rather than by spiritual liberation. Fundamentalism trades in the currency of control, manipulation, and coercion. The short of it is this: Fundamentalism is a pathology of the heart, that has exchanged love for fear."
