Is Critical Race Theory a False Gospel? - John Stevens
In this talk, John Stevens provides a biblical critique of CRT. Some evangelicals have dismissed CRT, and wider social justice ideology, as a false gospel that imperils the church and society. Others have argued that it sheds light on the reality of sin in our fallen world. We examine the arguments and assess their validity. This is part 4 of a 5-part series on Evangelical Responses to Critical Race Theory.
John Stevens is the National Director of the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches, a family of over 500 Bible-centred churches in the UK, a position that he has held since 2010.

John is also one of the pastors of Christchurch Market Harborough, a church he helped to plant when he took up his current role.
