Summary

Are you ready to get real with Niebuhr? Scott Paeth, professor of ethics at DePaul in Chicago, is on for this edition of the Why Go? series. Today, Scott is giving us 5 reasons why we should go Niebhurian (Niebuhr is probably the most influential American theologian of the 20th century, FYI). Scott is also the author of The Niebuhr Brothers for Armchair Theologians. How, as Christians, are we to engage in society? How are we to understand human nature? How should we understand the nature of evil and sin? All of these questions and more are covered in this very timely episode. Follow Scott on Facebook. You should also follow Homebrewed on Facebook, that way, you get notifications when we do live videos or webinars.
