The Crisis of Theological Illiteracy w/ Nathan Finochio (Part 1) | Strong Church Podcast Ep. 15

Part 2 coming soon!

🔥 D E S C R I P T I O N:
Pastor Lucas Miles and Nathan Finochio talk about one of the Church’s biggest blind spots: theological illiteracy. According to Nathan, the problem isn’t just that Christians don’t read their Bibles—it’s that many don’t even know what Christian doctrine is.

They dive into the difference between theology and mere Bible familiarity, why many pastors avoid hard truths, and how doctrinal shallowness is hurting the Church’s witness in a post-Christian culture. It’s a conversation that calls both leaders and laypeople to go deeper—beyond slogans, beyond vibes, and into the actual substance of the faith.

🧠 T O P I C S C O V E R E D:
✅ The difference between biblical literacy and theological understanding
✅ Why the Church must recover a love for doctrine
✅ The danger of reducing Christianity to moralism or vibes
✅ The importance of church tradition and historical grounding
✅ Why catechesis and theological training should matter again
