1.6 Truth in a Shifting World: Responding to a Culture of Blended Beliefs | Part 2 of 2 | Conversations on Culture & Faith
Update: 2025-10-22
Description

Show Notes:
In part two of our series on Neopaganism and spiritual blending, host Adele Werner continues the conversation with Pastor Gabe Kasper and Pastor Maxx Fisher. Together, they explore how the church can respond to today’s spiritual trends with both compassion and conviction. Instead of fear or judgment, Lutheran theology points us back to the unchanging truth of God’s Word and the comfort of His ordinary gifts—Word and Sacrament—where God promises to meet us with grace. This episode offers encouragement for a shifting world: no matter how many new beliefs arise, the truth of Christ remains steady, certain, and life-giving.
