On this episode, we examine the way Latinos use the local church as an organic seminary. We explore the importance of “el instituto,” asking what makes them unique and invaluable for ethnic churches. We are joined by celebrated Church Historian and Theologian Dr. Justo Gonzalez, author of the highly praised three-volume History of Christian Thought and books like Manana: Christian Theology from a Hispanic Perspective and Santa Biblia: The Bible Through Hispanic Eyes. Dr. Gonzalez shares with us the challenges facing traditional theological education and the way the Institute presents a new way forward. Join us as we listen to Dr. Gonzalez.
