## Resource

Pastor's A.J. Dudek and Doug Van Dorn dive into the complexities of modern evangelical theology, exploring the results of the State of Theology 2025 survey. They discuss the confusion surrounding the Trinity and the personhood of the Holy Spirit, highlighting the alarming statistic that 57% of evangelicals view the Holy Spirit as a force rather than a person. The conversation also touches on the historical roots of evangelicalism, the impact of cultural narratives on doctrinal beliefs, and the challenges of maintaining theological integrity in a pluralistic society. With engaging insights and thought-provoking questions, this episode invites listeners to reflect on the core tenets of their faith and the importance of sound doctrinal teaching.
