Southern Baptist Theological Seminary President Al Mohler recently gave his views on the difference between younger and older evangelicals in an interview with Salem Radio’s Hugh Hewitt.

Asked about how evangelical leaders contrasted with students at his seminary when it comes to the November election, Mohler said:

“Well, I’ll tell you, the older evangelical leadership is in danger right now of looking really old, and old not just in chronological terms, but more or less, kind of acting as if the game hasn’t changed, as if we’re not looking at a brand new cultural challenge, and a new political reality. And so I would say that the younger evangelicals that I look at every single day, and they are so deeply committed, so convictional, they’re basically wondering if a lot of the older evangelical leaders are really looking to the future, or are really just kind of living in the ’80s while the ’80s are long gone. So I think there’s a crucial credibility issue there.”
