A Practical Guide to Culture: Helping the Next Generation Navigate Today's World

  • 自19年底新冠疫情爆发,整个世界陷入极大的危机当中。因为选举年的缘故,各种危机在美国尤其突显。新冠疫情蔓延,经济活动停滞,社会矛盾加剧,政治立场两极化,家庭和代际关系紧张等,造成人们很大的困扰,包括我们基督徒。暑假想和弟兄姐妹们一起学习A Practical Guide to Culture: Helping the Next Generation Navigate Today's World,目的是学习从信仰的角度去理解社会文化,帮助我们自己和下一代用圣经世界观面对社会议题,找到基督徒在这个时代与神的计划和心意连接的方式。这次读书会也是之前学习《以弗所书》的一个应用,明白教会如何在现今的时代展现“神百般的智慧”。
  • 这本书总共有四大部分19章,初步计划在两个月左右学完。每周的阅读量在40-60页左右。
