Overview of The Thrill of Orthodoxy

In an era of DIY spirituality and deconversion, "The Thrill of Orthodoxy" reclaims Christian faith's adventure. Award-winning and endorsed by theological leaders, Wax's counterintuitive premise: true spiritual freedom isn't found in abandoning tradition - but in embracing it.

The Forgotten Thrill of Ancient Truth

00:00

In a world obsessed with novelty and personal truth, orthodoxy sounds like the ultimate bore-rigid rules from dusty books. Yet what if the greatest adventure isn't creating your own spiritual path but discovering one that's stood for centuries? What if rebellion in today's world isn't about breaking rules but embracing them? This is the provocative premise behind "The Thrill of Orthodoxy." The crisis facing Christianity isn't primarily external persecution but internal complacency-when believers no longer feel wonder at the extraordinary truths they profess. Like running water that amazes those who've never had it while being utterly forgettable to those who have, the gospel's magnificence has become mundane to many Christians. We attend services, recite creeds without stirred hearts, and compartmentalize faith as just one aspect of busy lives. But authentic Christianity isn't a tame hobby-it's a mission requiring obedience to a King, an adventure that brings us face-to-face with opposition. Our spiritual malaise stems from losing confidence in Christianity's truth and goodness-we've inherited a vast estate but stay cooped up in a broom closet, bored and restless.
