Key Quotes From Phil Vischer
“I am intrigued by the influence of, by the interplay over the last hundred years of what I would describe as northern evangelicalism and southern fundamentalism.
“Who’s wrestling the name evangelical closer to their side? I think that’s a very interesting story over the last 60 years, is who owns the name evangelical? What does it mean?”
“I do believe more in the northern evangelical tradition…and I’m very concerned…that some of the worst aspects of southern fundamentalism are winning the day and creating a new global impression of historic evangelicalism.”
“I’m really interested in how the Civil War through Jim Crow affected the southern church and then how the southern church is affecting global evangelicalism.”
