Ep. 101: How has humanism impacted the church?

In this episode of Focused on Christ, Mike Crump and Pastor Nathan Smith delve into how Christians should approach content from questionable or theologically problematic sources. They emphasize the importance of #discernment and personal #conviction when consuming #christian media, urging believers to evaluate content based on its alignment with Scripture. The conversation also identifies four #humanistic errors that have crept into the modern #church: the belief in self-empowerment, the misuse of the term 'toxic' to avoid difficult relationships, the idea of only pursuing passions, and the obsession with individual identity. These humanistic philosophies detract from a Christ-centered worldview. This discussion encourages believers to root their identity in Christ, embrace the sacrifices of faith, and apply discernment in all aspects of life.
