Over the past century, American Christians — along with others — have largely embraced the culture war model, bringing a particular edge to the way we engage with the world. The list of topics in which we argue over — both within and outside the faith — seems endless. What can we do about the argumentative spirit present in our churches?

In this episode of Difficult Conversations, host Walter Kim interviews Dr. Darrell Bock, one of today’s leading biblical scholars. Together they explore lessons from Scripture on how we can realign our approach to the way of Jesus, holding true to our faith and presenting a compelling witness to the world.

You’ll also hear observations from Robert Cunningham, vicar of Church of the Good Shepherd in Charlottesville, Virginia, and Frankie Powell, a pastor to pastors and leader of the Global Church Network, on navigating church life in the midst of culture wars.
