I decided to not put @EricRWeinstein in the title but I did use a clip of his conversation with @JDVance1. Also a number of references to his outstanding convo with @DouthatNYT. His decadence book has really colonized me. 1/7

I also read almost the entire introduction to @RootAndrew 's amazon.com/Pastor-Secular… which has within it an outstanding narrative of the American church over the last few hundred years. 2/7

There is a clip from the @veritasforum with @profntwright , @DouthatNYT and @peterthiel which was an excellent conversation from 2014 3/7

If you understand @RootAndrew 's narrative I think you can rightly understand @jordanbpeterson 's big wave and the emergence of the @EricRWeinstein 's IDW in the Western, secular church context. 4/7

JBP's post-modern situated neo-classical-liberalism informed by his Jungian Existentialist take offered a sufficiently plausible religious suggestion to push a wave of people back to church, especially highly sacramentalist churches. 5/7

Finally started diving into Hans Boersma's excellent amazon.com/Heavenly-Parti… which is not disappointing. In a rather @PageauJonathan way we're cycling back to a neo-sacramentalism informed by church fathers. (HT @EricJDirksen ) 6/7

Before watching @jordanbpeterson I was watching some of the brightest and best in the @CRCNA follow this path lead by @james_ka_smith but now the pieces (at least in my mind) are starting to fall together... 7/7

Hey @threadreaderapp unroll this thread (see if I can figure out how this thing works...)
