The Church as Agent of Cultural Renewal
Tuesday, February 10, 2009, 3:30pm-5:00pm,Royal Palm Salons 1&2
We often think of culture as happening "out there" beyond the church's reach. But in fact your church has deep resources in becoming a source of creative renewal in your community and in our society at large. Who are the potential untapped "culture makers" in your congregation? What kind of pastoring and leadership do they need? How can an emphasis on cultural calling actually strengthen the life of the Christian community as well? We will explore both the theological foundations and the practical elements of Christian culture making.
