Summary

If you haven't heard of "critical theory," you've likely heard ideas floating around that come from this ideology. In this episode, Haley chats with Neil Shenvi about Critical Theory and why it is antithetical to the gospel. According to Shenvi, it is an "ideology based on the analysis of power dynamics between the oppressed and their oppressors," and it's becoming more and more influential in our culture.
