Gospel, Church and Culture Workshop
http://old.new-wineskins.org/events/2008/10/gospel-church-and-culture-workshop/
This Saturday OCT. 16 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM in Travis-Lovitt Hall
Suggested donation: $5.00 per individual Dr. Paul Louis Metzger and Dr. Brad Harper will be speaking about how the church is to minister in culture as the triune God’s kingdom community.
Metzger and Harper will address such questions as “What is the gospel?” “What should the church’s relation to culture be?” and “What difference does it make for the church in its ministry in the broader culture that it is the triune God’s kingdom community?” Tony Kriz will serve as the MC for the workshop. There will be ample time for Q&A during the proceedings. As Christ-followers committed to Christ’s church’s missional outreach, it is important that we exegete rightly the Bible as well as the culture into which we seek to communicate the gospel. Please join us, and help us wrestle with these important issues!
