About the Lecture

The God of the Bible is a God of righteousness and justice. While Christians know that his righteousness and justice will not be complete in this world, we still rightly desire to pursue these here and now, for his sake and for the sake of human flourishing. But when does being a “culture warrior” conflict with our role as ambassadors of Christ? In a time of increased division and polarization, the warrior mindset may be more than ever in conflict with the Christian’s call to the ministry of reconciliation.
