The Culture Maker 

 
Genesis 4:17-23

When God placed Adam in the role of caretaker in the Garden of Eden (Gen. 2:15), Adam cultivated more than the ground. By building a society, he developed the first culture. Culture is what man builds upon God¹s creation. It includes values, ideas, language, habits, beliefs, customs and social organization.

Culture gives the world its rich diversity, but many of us are reluctant to experience a different culture. Some NATO military personnel stationed in Europe became known as "barrack rats." They never set foot outside their compound to experience German culture. Inside they had their own food, movies, magazines and home-grown lifestyle.

Some Christians develop this kind of "ghetto" mentality when they leave their old lives. This attitude creates Christian "barrack rats" who are in the world, but nowhere near it! It is only as we live out the principles of God's kingdom, in the context of all of life, that our culture will be changed by truth.

Read one of the Gospels and discover how Jesus interacted with the culture of His day. What principles can you learn and apply from His example?

Going further: Matt. 5:13-16; I Cor. 9:19-22

Our Loving Father 

Our Loving Father is the reason for all that Patty and I do in our lives' and ministry.  It was God that took our shattered lives' and not only gave us new hope, but became the perfect, loving Father that we never had.

More than just a Father, God is also a redeemer, one that promises that no matter what we have done we can be pure and new again.  The only cost is our committment to Him through Jesus Christ.

Discipling Nations Quotes 
Over the next several days we will insert quotes from the ONLINE magazine* concerning the issue of "Discipling Nations."

"I want to say very strongly that our goal is directly and unapologetically aimed at changing the world for Christ. This means emphasizing evangelism, discipling of nations, and the importance of being salt and light in every area of society for the purpose of leading nations to Christ. Without that goal we have no reason to exist." Loren Cunningham, Founder, Youth With A Mission and President, University of the Nations

"The book of Genesis, indeed the rest of the whole Bible, paints a graphic picture of the extent of the destructive power of sin; in individuals, in social relations and in the natural order. These three categories, however, also represent the three domains of the ministry of reconciliation ... For the biblical Christian then, our task, needs to include evangelism of the lost, biblical based reform of society and culture, and stewardship of the natural order." Fraser Haug, Co-Founder, Pro-Ethnos; YWAM teacher

"I know of nobody in U of N international leadership who does not believe that evangelism, saturation church planting and frontier missions are our first and most urgent priorities, and the critical foundation for any discipling-nations movement. There is no Biblical or historical or practical basis for discipling a nation, except through first evangelizing it and working toward a strong and vigorous national Church." -- Tom Bloomer, International Provost, University of the Nations.
