Evangelical Anti-intellectualism. Part Five: A Biblical Case for Anti-intellectualism?

Think for Christ by Dr. Anthony Alberino and Dr. Andrew Payne

Episode notes

In Part Five of this series on Evangelical Anti-intellectualism Anthony Alberino turns to Scripture to see if there is a case to be made there for anti-intellectualism. A handful of passages from the New Testament are examined which are most often used by well-meaning Christians to discourage other Christians from intellectual pursuits. When considered in context, none of these passages give any support for the notion that Christians ought to avoid learning or pursuing a life of the mind.
