A Conversation on the Work of Sacred Cultural Engagement

Glenn Packiam

Practicing Pentecost with a Sacramental Imagination with Glenn Packiam

The Telos Collective interviews thinkers, scholars and practitioners to help ministry leaders engage culture with the gospel. Subscribe to the podcast to hear both high-level insights and on-the-ground stories to equip you for missional living.

There is solid dialogue going on here. Listening to this on 1 ½ speed is doable. I have listened three times to this first installment and genuinely enjoyed the discussion on the arbitrariness associated with the words &#34;Culture&#34; and &#34;World&#34; nowadays. It is imperative to return to a biblically informed understanding of these terms by examining what Jesus or Paul or others had to say about them and aligning our witness with that understanding.

Favorite paraphrased quotes: &#34;We need to become discerners about where worldliness exists in our lives and in our churches and subvert it with a cruciform life.&#34; &#34;Cast the vision of the Kingdom instead of just a reaction to the world.&#34; &#34;We&#39;re trying to dress the gospel up in a suit for people when they need it in overalls.&#34;

Kingdom-minded, culturally-informed, and Christ-centered.

Katelyn Beaty

S1E5 :: Last year's #MeToo and #ChurchToo movements sparked important conversations around women and the church. We asked author Katelyn Beaty to discuss the role women play in the workplace and in the Church, and how the Church can empower and equip women in these spaces. Katelyn is the former managing editor at Christianity Today and author of the book A Woman’s Place: A Christian Vision for Your Calling in the Office, the Home, and the World.  She shares how the Church can make space for women—both those who feel called to work and those who feel called to lead in the church.
