#47 Angels, Demons, and Scientists: How Charismatic & Pentecostal Churches engage with Science
Manage episode 502165754 series 3685347
What do Charismatic/Pentecostal Christians think of science? Two of their number discuss the distinctives of their tradition on this question:
- Chris Done, Professor of astrophysics at Durham University
- Simo Frestadius, executive director of the institute for Pentecostal theology
Among their many insights are that:
- Charismatics place a lot of emphasis on experience and experiment - not so different to scientists!
- Charismatics are keen to ‘demythologise’ the Bible - but not the same way Bultmann did!
Enjoy listening! Thanks to Jamie Maule for his sound engineering!
