Dr. Albert Mohler on Cultural Shift, Church Planting, and Believers in Utah
It
was my great pleasure, along with Bryan Catherman of SaltyBeliever.com, to host
Dr. Albert Mohler the president of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary on
our podcast Salty Believer Unscripted.
Dr. Mohler was kind enough to sit down with us after a long day of
lecturing at Brigham Young University in the morning and preaching at a small
conference called “Contend” for area Christian pastors at First Baptist Provo
in the evening. As an alumnus of
Southern Seminary I am always excited to have Dr. Mohler in the state of Utah. This was Dr. Mohler’s second address at
Brigham Young University in Provo Utah, which was a follow up, and continuation
of his first address earlier this year.

After
Dr. Mohler’s sermon and a time of Q & A with the general audience and a
fellowship with area pastors, Dr. Mohler was gracious enough to speak with
Salty Believer Unscripted late into the night. Particularly we discussed the question “How do we plant
churches that will be able to survive the cultural shifts that are going
on?” Following this question Dr.
Mohler then gave some great insights into the culture that is developing in
Utah and particularly in the Wasatch Front. Dr. Mohler had the following to say about believers in Utah:
"You are on the cutting edge of what America is going to look
more like…the fact the evangelicals are in a minority and have been for a very
long time, virtually from the beginning of Utah as a territory, means you're on
the cutting edge as a laboratory of what Christians in the rest of America are
going to wake up and find. I'm not asking you to rejoice in every
particular; I am asking you to consider the fact that the Lord has giving you
the stewardship here to help the rest of the Church to figure these things
out."
Bryan and I are very
thankful for the time Dr. Mohler spent with Salty Believer Unscripted and
overjoyed for his encouragement to believers Utah. I highly encourage you to listen to our podcast with Dr.
Mohler HERE. If you would like to
