Christ and Pop Culture

Thoughtfully exploring CULTURE AND MEDIA THROUGH A CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW. How do we engage with our culture in a way that is open, winsome, faithful and thoughtful? How do we show the beauty and goodness of the Gospel as it intersects with every sphere of culture and media? How might we publicly offer an alternative vision of a living faith that others might comprehend and receive? Christ and Pop Culture is an online curated magazine, which exists to acknowledge, appreciate, and think rightly about the common knowledge of our age. Their mission is to edify the Church, glorify God, and witness to the world by encouraging and modeling a biblical presence within the culture that is characterized by nuance and appreciation while resisting the extremes of thoughtless condemnation and uncritical embrace. They stand on the Gospel and exist for the Church. _Lunch will be provided with your ticket purchase. _ __ SPEAKER BIO Dr. O.
