Get the appChrist Above Culture - a CrossCultured PerspectiveSample
God's calling often takes us out of the world we know... we are called to surrender comfort, identity, and cultural norms. When God called Abraham, he called him to himself... to a land that God would show him. This meant that Abraham would need to keep his eyes on God.
From our simplest steps of obedience to the big-ticket items, God keeps calling us out of the known into the unknown. Just like the father of faith, our faith will need to resemble the heart of trust and surrender that Abraham conveys.
Dear Lord,
Give me the courage to follow you beyond the familiar, to embrace the discomfort, and allow you to define me.

About this Plan
Culture influences how we live. However, scripture shows that God moves beyond cultural boundaries. From Abraham leaving his people to Paul reaching the Gentiles, God’s presence transcends human divisions. Jesus ultimately redefines culture through the lens of the Kingdom of God. Therefore, culture must remain subject to God’s Word, the work of Christ on the cross, and the ongoing spread of the Gospel. To truly hear God, we must be willing to let Him challenge and reshape what we consider our “way of life”. CrossCultured: Making the Cross the Core of the Culture we build!
