Today’s challenges are complex, and the pace of social change is breath-taking. Competing gospels that promise deliverance from the human predicament vie for our attention, loyalty and even worship.
How can Christians be equipped to address disruptions in a world that is becoming more diverse and divided, religiously pluralistic, secularized, globally connected and nationalistic?
These challenges feel daunting. But the good news of Jesus has thrived, and the Church has been renewed, in tumultuous times. Now is a moment to consider afresh a comprehensive application of the gospel and to foster a dynamic model of civic discipleship.
Come hear Walter Kim, president of the National Association of Evangelicals, address these challenges as an opportunity for gospel renewal for such a time as this.
