About this episode

The episode discusses the decline of secularism in Europe and the potential for Christianity to fill the resulting spiritual vacuum.

Is Europe moving from a post-Christian to post-secular culture? Magnus Persson, a Swedish Lutheran pastor and former Pentecostal church planter, joins Michael Horton and Bob Hiller to discuss how secularism is collapsing under the weight of its own emptiness, leaving a spiritual vacuum that Christianity can fill.
