After Evangelism
Dates: Feb 24, 2006 - Feb 25, 2006
The Cultural Lives of Christians and Their Neighbor
From the conference web site:
What if the Church organized its life around a commitment to discipleship and not just mere evangelism? What would the Church look like if it acted consistent with its calling to teach disciples to observe all that he has commanded? How should the Church minister in the world if those commands are not just about personal belief and piety but about the way we conduct every aspect of our lives in the Creation that exists by, for, and through Christ? How would the Church's forms of expressing its identity and message be different if Christians realized that cultural life isn't just a convenient and arbitrary conduit for evangelism, but the way that our obedience, faithfulness, our new life find concrete expression in the world, but not of it?
After Evangelism is a conference aimed at helping redefine the Church and Culture debate to focus on two neglected issues:
- The culture-shaping vocation of the Church; and
- The ways in which form is as significant as content in the shaping of our convictions and community.
Ken Myers, executive producer of Mars Hill Audio, will be the featured speaker at this conference.
