#47 Angels, Demons, and Scientists: How Charismatic & Pentecostal Churches engage with Science

Description

What do Charismatic/Pentecostal Christians think of science? Two of their number discuss the distinctives of their tradition on this question:

  1. Chris Done, Professor of astrophysics at Durham University
  2. Simo Frestadius, executive director of the institute for Pentecostal theology


Among their many insights are that:

  • Charismatics place a lot of emphasis on experience and experiment - not so different to scientists!
  • Charismatics are keen to ‘demythologise’ the Bible - but not the same way Bultmann did!


Enjoy listening! Thanks to Jamie Maule for his sound engineering!
