Christ against culture. Christ for culture. Christ transforming culture. Which approach is correct? Shouldn’t Christians have a one-size-fits-all, agreed upon set of principles for engaging with culture? The truth is that the Bible doesn’t give us one right answer. More like…six! On today’s episode, Keith and Patrick are previewing the six types of culture changers they lay out in their new book, Joyful Outsiders. They introduce each type: the trainer, the protester, the advisor, the artist, the ambassador, and the builder. The two share key insights for each, as well as biblical examples and temptations, or weak spots. They highlight the importance of unity and diverse churches that can make room for such different approaches to culture change. Plus, which type are you? You can find out before the book’s release by taking our free self-assessment today!
