Cultures in Conflict:
Living Faithfully in a Challenging World
with Ray Vander Laan
What does it mean to follow Jesus when the values of the world around us conflict with our faith?
In this study, Ray Vander Laan takes us into the ancient cities of Athens and Corinth, where the Apostle Paul shared the message of Jesus in cultures shaped by wealth, social status, idol worship, and the pursuit of pleasure. Sound familiar?
Through the historical and cultural background of the New Testament, we’ll discover how Paul engaged people with different beliefs, communicated the truth of the Gospel, and remained faithful to Jesus in a world that often stood in opposition to his message.
As we explore Paul's experiences, we’ll consider the atmosphere of our own culture and how we can respond when its values conflict with God's Word. How can we engage thoughtfully with those around us, live out our faith with courage and humility, and become a transforming influence in our communities?
This is a fantastic opportunity to dig deeper into some of the topics we uncovered in our last study, Everyday Revolutionary. Join us in the discussion on living faithfully for Jesus in a world of competing values, and reflecting God's love and truth wherever He has placed us.
