Understanding and Engaging our Culture for Christ
How do we talk about Jesus in a way that connects with modern culture?
As followers of Jesus, we know that the good news is deeply attractive. But we often fear that to those on the outside, it comes across as irrelevant or even repellent. Sometimes the Christian worldview feels so out of step with everything else going on that we don't know how to share our faith.
Come join us at the Munster BW Conference as we unpack how we can connect those around us with the gospel of Jesus . We will also think through how we can wisely confront those around us in a winsome and Christ Centred way that will resonate with people investigating knowing Jesus. During the afternoon we will cover aspects such as Our Culture’s greatest need , Understanding our Culture and Engaging our Culture. We will enjoy a time of looking together at God's word, hearing from other people's contexts, and learn how best to make those gospel connections with those God has placed around us.
