Ted Kim is senior pastor of Evanston Vineyard. He did his undergrad degree at the University of Chicago and has Masters of Divinity from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois.Ted joins me today to discuss the role of “story” in our quest for meaning in an increasingly “post-secular” America. How should followers of Jesus who believe in a true-overarching story for humanity interact with the stories we are constantly consuming via streaming services, movies, books and podcasts? How do we sift through our cultural stories to find points of harmony and dissonance with the grand story of Scripture?How is Christ at work in the our mythological fantasy stories like The Lord of the Rings or Star Wars?What can be mutually gained by expanding our cultural horizons through friendship with people in different macro and micro-cultures?We’ll discuss all this and more in today’s episode.To watch the most recent Deep Talks video on Luke Skywalker/Star Wars mentioned in this podcast, visit the Deep Talks YouTube channel at :https://youtu.be/_7ixhW_Ts7Y
