Summary
What is an evangelical, actually?
In this episode I start where most modern discussions begin: David Bebbington’s Quadrilateral. Four markers that scholars use again and again to describe evangelical identity:
- Conversionism (lives need to be changed)
- Activism (the gospel expressed in action)
- Biblicism (a high regard for Scripture)
- Crucicentrism (the cross at the centre)
But the point isn’t just listing them. The point is asking what this definition explains, what it hides, and why it’s been so persuasive for so long.
We’ll also keep one question in view the whole time: is evangelicalism a distinct movement, or have we simply described normal Christianity in a particularly Protestant key?
This is the foundation stone for the rest of the series.
