If you drink of this well, you will thirst again. But if you drink of me, you will never go thirsty. Joel and Stu work through Francis Schaeffer's The God Who Is There — the ministry at L'Abri, the Trinity as the foundation of love, the Great Evangelical Disaster and what it takes for the church to be the thing of strength and beauty that Schaeffer hoped it would be.

The early missionary who wouldn't baptise Indigenous Australians until they'd learned to farm had syncretised the gospel with the Scottish Enlightenment's theory of civilisation, and couldn't see it.
