Culture
Scrmipeetts ure
Workshop
What do we do when our cultural values
and practices clash with Biblical teachings?
How do we advise new believers?
Freedom to celebrate culture can be found for Christians
as they develop Scripturally sound ways to
integrate faith and culture in handling con ict and in
events such as births, marriages, and deaths.
The Culture meets Scripture Workshop,
conducted by Jo Shetler and Amy West, will help
Christian leaders to examine cultural practices in
light of Scripture and then formulate a response
that both aligns with Scripture and yet remains
culturally meaningful.
Participants will be trained to lead others
in the process
