"A lot of Christians get nervous when they hear the word 'humanism,' because they think it's synonymous with secular humanism. But there's a real tradition."
Christian humanism isn't a contradiction, and it isn't secularism in disguise. In this clip from the Good Faith Podcast, Pete Wehner — writer at The Atlantic and a former White House staffer — traces a rich lineage running from the early church fathers through Erasmus, the Renaissance, C.S. Lewis, and figures like W.H. Auden and Simone Weil. At its heart is the imago dei: the conviction that every person is made in the image of God and carries inherent worth and dignity. Host Curtis Chang and Pete make the case for recovering it.
