There was a time when the church was at the centre of culture and society. Increasingly, however, the church is being pushed to the sidelines, and there’s growing tension between these two worlds that were once so tightly intertwined. As Lee Beach explains, this is an experience that’s not new to God’s people: the nation of Israel was pushed out of their land in the Old Testament, and even the Early Church identified with the reality that they were not a people of power and influence in their culture. Lee discusses how looking at our present reality through the lens of scripture can help us navigate how to live faithfully in this context.
