Many evangelical Christians remain uncomfortable about engaging with the Biblical narrative, in both Old and New Testaments, around evil, Satan, spiritual forces and demonic power. And even more so in trying to identify their malign hand behind modern trends. But in this episode we reconsider what scripture says – and doesn’t say – about the nature of evil and ungodly spiritual forces, the powers and principalities of our world. How have theologians connected the “lordless” powers the Bible warns us against with modern institutions, technologies and ideas? Is it naïve to expect an industry as unprecedently wealthy and powerful as Silicon Valley to be immune from the deceitful and manipulative influence of personal evil? Are powerful new technologies like the internet or generative AI really just neutral tools, only as dangerous as the people using them? And, how can the church learn to be more sceptical and thoughtful about power and how it is exercised in our current societies?
