There seems to be a growing anti-intellectualism in the church where folks are expected to be non-rational thinkers to follow Jesus. It is rare to see in our culture or in our media positive, intellectual or just smart and accurate ways of living a faith-filled life.
Does blind faith mean check your brain at the door before you enter a church or read a bible verse? Can one be a critical thinker and have a faith? Does following Jesus mean people have to be sheep, not ask questions and listen to public leaders do the thinking for them? Brian explores the complex tension that exists between honoring good old common sense and engaging in God-like behavior.
