Truth in a Secular World

from Getting Wisdom · host Myron Steeves and Martin Isreb

This week's episode of Getting Wisdom we dive into the contemporary struggle of the modern evangelical church as it seeks harmony in an increasingly secular world. Revisiting foundational texts from Calvin’s Institutes of the Christian Religion and Aquinas’s Summa Theologica, they explore why metaphors in Scripture are vital, the implications of truth as a self-evident principle, and the cultural shift from a God-centered to self-centered worldview. With perspectives on why “whatever you win them with is what you win them to,” we question whether the church’s drive for relevance may risk diluting the essence of the gospel. This episode challenges listeners to consider the cost of faith, the moral code within us, and the profound sense of purpose embedded in our nature.
