Into the Savage Wilderness
from Eric Ludy Sermon Podcast: Church at Ellerslie
Podcast: The Church at Ellerslie Sermons Title: Into the Savage Wilderness Sub-title: a study in the historic adventure-filled boldness of the Church Date: July 5, 2020 Series: The Spiritual Biography of a Nation Part: #7 Description: In the 16th century, two movements were afoot — 1) the lust-driven pursuit of gold, and 2) the love-driven pursuit of souls. The gold pursuers turned south and claimed Central and South America, while the soul pursuers (the missionaries) turned north and pursued the souls of the native peoples of the territory we now know as North America. The heritage of America is decidedly one of boldness and unashamedness for the Gospel. That is a piece of our heritage that ought not to be lost in the midst of our present-day “erase-everything” and/or “reinterpret-everything" movement.
