We need to think about the defective theologies involved, particularly in the majority world. Shards of dispensationalism, pietism, and SSD are making progress difficult. Also, consumerism and convenience are massive factors too.

as long as the gospel is about personal salvation, we ain’t going to make much headway.

We don’t even do discipleship well. How can we progress onto climate change? We need to get this into our pulpits.

I agree, Paul, that we need to make progress on the gospel being about more than personal salvation. Who do you think plays the important role here? Pastors? Theologians? Seminary preparation? Small group discipleship?

all!
