DP Radio, the Feb 22, 2007 edition, is on the air. In today’s broadcast, we begin a discussion about truth, we also discuss a little Britney Spears, as a well as an interview with Aaron Lee of prayzimbabwe.org. Throw in a little ABBA and 99 Red Balloons, and it’s an all around good time! One more thing, I’m working through an idea of Truth as a multi-facited jewel. When you hear this podcast, don’t think that I believe in only one aspect of truth.

I get where you are coming from and your deeper meaning… but, it sounds like a tip toe up to the edge of cultural relativism and relevance. Ultimately, I am on the same page when you say you believe the gospel of Christ is exclusive and clear, but the football in the USA is oblong, and the futbol in latin America is round and that we must realize the different potential meanings of “truth” in both of those cultures and contexts. However, as applied to evangelism – which for me it rises and falls on evangelism – we must learn the languages of the cultures in order that we do not preach in Indian to a crowd of Greek speaking people or… to put it bluntly, that we don’t speak white-bread, middle class America in an hip-trendy-cool urban setting where that language is not readily understood. Is part of that realization that they do not understand, or is it partly that they do not “embrace.” The inversion of linguistics rule applies in cases where the actual language of the community does not differ, however the expression of that language differs greatly. e.g. Rap and Hip Hop. I don’t understand or enjoy those musical expressions and I don’t understand OR embrace them, because I do not want to understand OR embrace them… Which is not to say that if I am witnessing or ministering to a kid who is totally spun out over rap or hip hop that I am going to use doctorate level seminarian vernacular. Slippery slope though I think I know where you are coming from and where you aim to go – THAT is Alabaman!
