Catalyst Track: Ministers of Reconciliation // Day Two

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. – Matthew 5:16

To say we live in interesting times would be an understatement. A variety of controversial cultural issues vie for our attention and beg for our voices. As leaders, it may be difficult for us to discern the voice of truth or navigate channels of communication and action.

There are, however, simple truths we are called to live out regardless of the cultural complexities.

In this track, we’ll view videos from important thought-leaders who have visited the Catalyst stage. Over the next three days, we’ll hear from Father Edwin Leahy, Trip Lee and Lysa TerKeurst about how we should understand our role as Christian leaders in engaging culture as well how to actually to do it!

If you’re ready to evaluate your own attitude toward culture and take steps to participate in it further, watch the videos and complete the challenges at the end of each day.

DAY 2: Engaging in Culture

 

 

Do you see culture as something to stay away from or something to engage in?

In this video, Trip Lee reminds leaders:

 

• God has called us to be present in this world
• To think about how we can engage culture in a way that honors God
• To purposefully let our light shine before others

 

REFLECT:

Are you actively engaging in culture? Whether it’s through your small group, your hobbies, your church or your business, in what ways can you begin to shine light in today’s culture?
