What Critical Theory Gets Wrong—and Right | Neil Shenvi & Pat Sawyer

Between Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech and the modern social justice movement, the definition of “justice” changed. But critical social theories are based on important truths, even if they mix them with lies. Shane welcomes Drs. Neil Shenvi and Pat Sawyer to identify those truths and lies using their new book, Critical Dilemma.

Show Notes

The critical theories that dominate our cultural vocabulary aren’t “just” theories. They form an entire worldview that fundamentally contradicts the good, true, and beautiful worldview of Christianity. Neil Shenvi and Pat Sawyer’s latest book, Critical Dilemma, can help you understand and respond to the bad ideas of Critical Theory with discernment and truth.
