“For I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me.”
I Corinthians 15:9-10

In this episode of Fulfilled, we’re joined by West Hills Church Pastor Will DuVal to discuss how social justice issues are splitting the church. DuVal shares his eye-opening experience at a prestigious divinity school, where he was shocked to find Wiccan, atheist, and LGBTQ+ groups on campus. He explains how progressive theology in academia is not only impacting seminaries but also reshaping the wider church in America.
This episode also tackles the rise of “deconstruction” and the “exvangelical” movement, where people are leaving the church and rejecting traditional beliefs. DuVal shares his personal journey through doubt and skepticism, showing that God’s grace can redeem those who struggle. His own experiences have made him more passionate than ever about reaching out to those questioning their faith, offering them the love and truth of Christ.
