Plenary Title: Christianity and “Wokeness”: Are They Compatible?
Summary: In the last few years, large segments of both our culture and the church have been captivated by “antiracism,” “antisexism,” “intersectionality,” and “social justice.” But what exactly do these words mean? In this talk, I’ll sketch the core tenets of Critical Social Justice and explain how they undermine basic Christian doctrines. Christians can and should work for biblical justice without adopting ideas that are fundamentally incompatible with Scripture.
