Neo-Calvinism is well-known for its combination of orthodoxy and modernity. It is neither a nostalgic return to the Calvinism of 16th century Geneva, nor a principled rejection of older Christian tradition. Instead, it is something different. In this episode we discuss the neo aspect of neo-Calvinism: its relationship to the modern world. Join us for a conversation on why we are all implicated in the complex negotiation that is modernity, and on how to embody the Christian faith in that setting.
