Here’s a thought. ‘In the beginning was the Word. In the end, there were only words.’ We agree with the author Mike Riddell, who believes that words can flood our lives and lose their meaning. So, we design our Connecting with Culture dispatches with care, to reflect succinctly upon our world from a Biblical perspective.
They’re not the last word on the subject. But we hope they provide the first - on a wide range of up-to-the-minute cultural issues. Some may move you. Some may challenge you. Some may even wind you up. But here’s your chance to read this week’s article, browse the archive, and find added value through group-work ideas and extra links to articles and websites.
We’d love to publish your rich and diverse responses, too. So why not join the ever growing LICC community and have your say on the chosen thought of the week? Simply click on ‘respond’ and tell us – and the rest of the community – what you think. All we ask is that you choose your words as carefully as we try to choose ours.
We’ve made it easy for you to print each Connecting with Culture to post on your notice board, at home or at work. And you can now send each article on to people you think would benefit. We’d love you to spread the word about a resource that over 6,500 Christians now enjoy every week.
So, welcome! Over the next few months, we’ll grow this mini-site to provide a deeper on-line Christian engagement with culture. Here at LICC, we’re trying to help you to make a difference – in your work place, university, home, church - and to critique, redeem and even appreciate the culture around you.
The Word became flesh and blood and moved into the neighbourhood. Our task is to follow him along the Way. In the process, we strive to become more fully the people that God created us to be – reflecting the divine image of an amazing Creator. It’s a journey of discovery, a walk of life and faith, through the dark places and the light, towards a better world - through the redemptive, inspiring, creative and radical call of Christ.
We hope you enjoy your journey with us.
