On this episode of the podcast, we go deeeeeep with Dr Ekaputra Tupamahu about his 2022 book Contesting Languages: Heteroglossia & the Politics of Language in the Early Church. This book is a highly detailed and technical revisitation of the phenomenon typically shorthanded in today’s church as “tongues”, primarily viewed through the lens of 1 Corinthians 14.
Eka was very generous with his time & expertise, and put up no defensive barriers when I probed him pretty deeply about his thesis. I hope you’ll find this an enlightening conversation, even if you disagree with some of the premises!
