Did you see the opening ceremony of the Olympics this year? Do you feel more like an outsider because of your beliefs? Have you wondered how Christians can respond to the current cultural climate in a way that truly reflects our faith and values? I definitely have! Today's podcast is one you can't miss! Bunni Pounds from Christians Engaged joins us in this conversation as we seek to answer the question: how should Christians engage culture?
This was one of the first episodes I recorded, knowing eventually, this year, I would want to talk about this uncomfortable issue. It really is a lot simpler than I have made it out to be. We are called to be salt, light, and a city on a hill. Bunni gives us three practical takeaways on how we, as Christians, can effectively engage with culture while still remaining Christ-like. We also discuss Bunni's book, Jesus and Politics: One Woman's Walk with God in a Mud-Slinging Profession, and the work of Christians Engaged.
Thanks for listening and sharing with a friend!
