Life and Books and Everything – Where Have All the Fundamentalists Gone? | RSS.com

With two smart British historians—one from Oxford (Andrew) and one from Aberystwyth (David)–and one curious American pastor (Kevin), you might say that this episode puts the “fun” back in fundamentalism. How did fundamentalism become a pejorative putdown? Are evangelicals and fundamentalists really all that different? What is a fundamentalist anyway? And, to paraphrase Harry Emerson Fosdick, did the fundamentalists win or lose the last century? Join in as Kevin interviews two evangelical scholars about their new edited volume, The Oxford Handbook of Christian Fundamentalism.Chapters:0:00 Introductions6:45 Why So Little Written by Fundamentalists?11:44 Defining Fundamentalism 25:20 Fundamentalism & Evangelicalism36:40 Sponsor Break | Crossway & DesiringGod38:11 The Scopes Trial & Billy Graham48:02 Evangelicalism & Politics in America1:05:25 Did the Fundamentalists Win?1:08:26 Until Next TimeBooks & Everything:Oxford Handbook of Christian FundamentalismAsk Pastor John: 750 Bible Answers to Life’s Most Important QuestionsLook at the Book

Note: Very interesting discussion from individuals outside our movement. Their comments seem to be fair, with perhaps some misunderstanding, but they show they are trying to understand the fundamentalist point of view. Worth a listen.
