For last 12 Decembers, Collin Hansen has analyzed the previous year to select 10 news stories that encapsulate key moments in theology. This past year held no shortage of the good, the bad, and the ugly when it comes to current events relating to theology. How Christians should think about these events wasn’t always clear. In the introduction to his list, Hansen writes:
This year’s list of top theology stories shows how difficult it can be to separate rumors and lies from facts. There’s almost always more than meets the eye. Rarely does a theology story lend itself to clear-cut interpretation. The debate is often what makes the story noteworthy, what makes it rank on this year-end list.
TGC managing editor Matt Smethurst joined Hansen on this episode of The Gospel Coalition Podcast to ask him about how he selected these stories and why they matter. Be sure to read My Top 10 Theology Stories of 2019 to see if you agree with Hansen’s choices.
