Part II: Societal Deterioration and the Epochal Analysis of a Bungling Church
Last week, we began exploring the five major epochs of American Church history and how each reflects the Church’s obedience—or failure—to fulfill its biblical calling of evangelism and discipleship.<br /><br />In this second installment, Ralph Drollinger and host Frank Sontag continue their discussion, walking through key eras that shaped the spiritual and cultural direction of our nation—from the Puritan pulpit of 1776 to the rise of theological liberalism, fundamentalism, neo-evangelicalism, and the religious right.Together, they uncover how each movement impacted the Church’s mission and the nation’s moral fabric, leading to the question: Will the next epoch finally align with the biblical model of Luke 3—one centered on evangelizing and discipling the lost?<br /><br />🎙️ Listen, reflect, and be strengthened in your understanding of how God works through His Church across history.<br /><br />📖 Download the full study at CapMin.org.<br /><br />Chapters:<br />00:00 Introduction and recap of Part 1<br />01:05 Luke 3: The biblical model for cultural transformation<br />05:01 Epoch 1 – The Puritan pulpit shapes American culture (1776)<br />07:38 Epoch 2 – The encroachment of theological liberalism (1877)<br />11:04 Epoch 3 – The fundamentalist reaction (1920s)<br />12:56 Epoch 4 – The birth of neo-evangelicalism (1950s)<br />16:02 Epoch 5 – The rise of the religious right (1975)<br />17:15 Toward a sixth epoch: the impact of Charlie Kirk<br />21:56 A call to return to evangelism and discipleship<br />23:18 Download and apply this three-part Bible study

Societal Deterioration and the Epochal Analysis of a Bungling Church, Part I
The Church is the pillar and support of the truth (1 Timothy 3:15), called to evangelize and make disciples as a preserving and illuminating force in a fallen world (Matthew 5:13–14). Yet throughout major epochs of American Church history, her efforts to engage culture have been marked by clumsy mistakes—“bungling” her calling.For nearly 50 years, much of the American Church’s focus in Washington, D.C. has been on changing laws. While biblical laws are worthy objectives, Luke 3 shows us an even more excellent way: evangelism and repentance as God’s ordained means to bring cultural change.In this first study of a three-part series, Ralph Drollinger explores:<br /><ul><li>Why heart change must precede lasting societal change</li><li>John the Baptist’s call to repentance in Luke 3:3–14</li><li>How evangelism transforms individuals, institutions, and nations</li><li>The repeated missteps of the American Church in neglecting evangelism</li></ul>Join us as we trace how the American Church has bungled her calling, and why the path forward begins with prioritizing evangelism.
