Chef Shuai Wang was the runner-up on the 22nd season of Bravo’s Top Chef and is the force behind two standout restaurants in Charleston, South Carolina—Jackrabbit Filly and King BBQ—where he brings together the flavors of his childhood in Beijing and the spirit of the South in some pretty unforgettable ways. He grew up just a short walk from Tiananmen Square, in a tiny home with no electricity or running water, where his grandmother often cooked over charcoal. Later, in Queens, New York, his mom taught herself to cook—her first dishes were a little salty, but they were always made with love. And somewhere along the way, Shuai learned that cooking wasn’t just about food—it was about taking care of people. After years working in New York kitchens, he made his way to Charleston and started building something that feels entirely his own. Today, we’re talking about how all those experiences come together on the plate, the family stories behind his cooking, and what it’s been like to share that journey on national TV.

In this thought-provoking episode of The UXP, we continue our exploration of the cultural transformations of the 1970s and their profound impact on American Christianity. Host Tim delves into the tension between tradition and innovation, examining how figures like Rousas John Rushdoony and Donald McGavran reshaped the church's engagement with society through theonomy and the homogeneous unit principle. We discuss the rise of the Religious Right, the church growth movement, and the seeker-sensitive approach that emerged from these shifts. Discover how leaders like Chuck Smith and Bill Hybels navigated these changes, and how their methods continue to influence contemporary church practices. As we reflect on the legacy of the 1970s, we pose critical questions about the nature of success in the church today—are we prioritizing numbers over discipleship, or are we truly fostering spiritual growth? Join us as we unpack these complex dynamics and consider what it means to faithfully engage in a world that often feels both unexplainable and unpredictable. 00:00 Uxp traces major cultural shifts that reshaped American society in 1970s 01:54 Theomy advocates for applying Old Testament law to contemporary society 08:05 Donald McGavn developed the homogeneous unit principle to promote church growth 23:13 Focused on reaching the counterculture and youth also shaped the secret sensitive approach 33:19 Many modern church leaders have adopted a corporate style leadership model 37:09 The modern church growth movement risks turning faith into a commodity…
