Series: The Second Great Evangelical Meltdown

by Richard Nathan

This series focuses upon ongoing sea changes in Evangelicalism today, utilizing Scripture and church history in an attempt to clarify those issues that are tending to weaken, break down, and misdirect Evangelicalism. Even though the effects are obvious, the forces behind these changes are not.

Part 1: A look at the First Great Evangelical Meltdown: 
The Liberal (or Modernist) / Fundamentalist Controversy (2010)

Part 2: The False Picture: Unmasking Postmodernism (2010)

Part 3: The "Romantic" Assault (June 2011)

'Christian' Romanticism, the Inklings, and the Elevation of Mythology Link
A burgeoning movement is occurring among evangelicals today connected with the works by such writers as J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. In many places it is nearly akin to a paradigm shift, yet almost no Christian literature seems available that both sets it within its true historical context and compares it with the Biblical worldview. Many Christians are unaware that this movement is part of the resurgence of a larger historical movement called Romanticism. What is it, and why is it vital to understand its influence? By Richard Nathan


Children of the Inklings: Emergent Christian Fiction Link
In recent years, fiction aimed at Christians has exploded. And popular authors are emphasizing more and more of those disturbing elements that once were relegated to pagan, occult, or secular novels. By Richard Nathan


New! The Hidden War of 'Romanticism' Link
There is a war going on that most Christians don't recognize that is altering the worldview of many people in the United States and, especially, of pastors and seminary professors. They appear to have very little awareness of the difference between Christianity and "Romantic" religion, a form of disguised occultism. Yet Christians, of all people, should be discerning and aware of the possible dangers of such a movement.

Green Like Envy: An Ex-pagan Looks at Blue Like Jazz Link
A phenomenon in evangelical circles, Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller (Thos. Nelson 2003) has sold over a million copies and made the New York Times bestseller list. An icon in the Emergent Church movement, it attracts countless youth in Christian culture, including seminarians and Christian ministries and pastors. Why? And what does that popularity reveal about evangelicalism today? By Richard Nathan


Recovering the Scandal of Liberalism: Disdaining the Cross Link
Using secular scholarship to try and debunk the Gospel isn't new, but the fact that once highly respected evangelical publishing houses and seminaries are now doing the same thing is a disturbing resurgence of a tragic pattern. And one Christians need to pay close attention to. By Richard Nathan 


Carl G. Jung: Man of Science or Modern Shaman? Link
Dave Hunt once remarked that if a medicine man in feathers and beads walked into a modern church, they would reject him, but if he were in scientist's garb, they would warmly receive him. Unfortunately the former is debatable these days, but the latter is all too common. A perfect illustration is Swiss psychiatrist Carl G. Jung, known among his intimate disciples as the Hexenmeister of Zurich, i.e., the "Master Sorcerer,”and in our times as the Father of the New Age Movement. Numerous Christians today welcome and apply his thinking, especially in counseling ministries. By Richard Nathan
