Church today

Today, Ted Travis spoke at our church. Pastor Travis is Director of Neighborhood Ministries in downtown Denver. One of the things he said is that we need to examine our own culture in the light of the gospel. We should not try to do the reverse (a common mistake he said). Ted also talked about the importance of affirming your own culture before you can start to affirm someone else's. He said Reconciliation can only take place among equals. Then we can be intentional about cross-cultural relationships. Nancy and I both thought this was profound. Ted's web site can be found here.
