Karen Swallow Prior: Cultural Engagement in the New Dark Ages of Digital Media

We live in a “post-truth, post-modern” cultural moment that drastically affects the way that we, as Christians, engage with the world. The pervasiveness of digital media only amplifies this cultural moment. In this episode, guest Karen Swallow Prior, author and professor at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, joins Ed and Daniel to discuss the importance of what she calls, a “500 Year Moment.” Topics discussed include: 

• Prior’s recent book release Cultural Engagement: A Crash Course in Contemporary Issues
• Defining post-truth and post-modern in the context of our culture
• What does it mean to live in the “digital dark ages”
• Challenges that evangelicals will face in this cultural moment
