One of the challenges for Christians is to maintain the simplicity and purity of our faith in a world where consumerism, hedonism, and a host of secular values constantly seek to reshape it into something else.

What could they do to avoid being swallowed up by this massive culture? We learn some lessons about preserving Christian truth in an alien culture in Genesis 46:28-47:12.
