episode 102: (S2, E51) Brinsmead's Back!
Summary:
By the time the church really got a handle on Robert Brinsmead, he had switched sides, causing more frustration for church leaders who would rather be rid of him. They found themselves forced to take up one of Brinsmead's major topics, righteousness by faith, and present their own understanding of what righteousness by faith is in a special issue of the Review in 1974. I'm sure it will go well...

Summary:
The occult was on the rise in the late 1960s, culminating in the "Satanic Panic" of the 1980s.
