Fine-Sounding Arguments: How Wrongly ‘Engaging the Culture’ Adjusts the Gospel (Session IV)

Speakers: Thabiti Anyabwile Year: 2010 Session: Main Session

What does it look like to engage and embrace culture? What are the terms and objectives of engagement? If one is set out to engage the culture, without careful biblical thought, one will likely see the gospel adjusted. As one is consumed in embodying the gospel itself, the Christian will engage culture in a Christ centered way.
