Why Christians Are Cultural Misfits, Pt. 4 Oct 27, 2020

Show notes

Despite the provocative title, this is a deeply practical series that focuses on how Christians interact with the surrounding culture. Exploring this theme under four headings (seeing, knowing, doing, and changing), the hope is to challenge Christians to hold onto all the strangeness that makes them distinct, and to help those outside the church gain a better understanding of what makes Christian men and women tick. Our final episode considers what it actually means to change the world, and how Christians rely on the power of their Lord, rather than mere human efforts.
