In this thought-provoking premiere of our new series, "Questions of Our Day," we tackle the provocative inquiry: "Isn't Christianity escapist?" Join us as we sit down with Dr. Darrell Bock from Dallas Theological Seminary, a seasoned scholar with a passion for cultural engagement and a heart for the gospel's transformative power.

Dr. Bock, with his 42 years of experience and global ministry, brings a wealth of knowledge to the table, challenging the misconception that Christianity is a mere escape from reality. Instead, he presents a compelling argument that Christianity is the epitome of realism, addressing not just the world's external complexities but also the internal struggles of the human heart.

In this episode, Dr. Bock navigates us through the intricate relationship between faith and public life, exploring the nuanced ways Christians can and should engage with the world around them. From politics to protests, social media to personal identity, he offers a perspective that encourages believers to look inward, confront the 'muck' of their hearts, and embrace the hope and transformation offered through Christ.

Listeners will be intrigued by Dr. Bock's insights on how Jesus himself would navigate today's cultural climate, emphasizing the importance of loving our neighbors and participating in the community as an outflow of our love for God. This conversation is not just theological theory but a practical guide to living out the Great Commandment in the 21st century.

For those who've questioned the relevance of Christianity in addressing the pressing issues of our day, or for anyone seeking a more grounded and authentic faith, this episode is a must-listen. It's a reminder that true Christianity is far from escapism – it's a call to be fully present, fully engaged, and fully hopeful in a world that desperately needs the light of the gospel.
