I don’t care if the church is culturally relevant.
No, I don’t want us to wallow in some old-time, glory days that probably never were. But cultural relevance is not the answer.
We need to start being contextually real.
Ministry is not about relevance, it’s about reality. And it’s not about the culture, it’s about our context. It’s about living my real life in the context of other people’s real lives.
