Cultural Liturgies & Counter Formation - Pastor Bronson Duke
Manage episode 432630125 series 2955458
What we do forms our loves, and what we love or desire directs our lives. The problem comes when we don’t recognize that our habits form what our hearts love and desire. This week we look at how we can - as Christians - resist seemingly innocent cultural practices and liturgies that so deeply are aspiring to recruit and form our hearts and imagination.
“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. 2Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
Romans 12:1-2 (NIV)
“We unconsciously learn to love rival kingdoms because we don’t realize we’re participating in rival liturgies.”
James K. A. Smith | You Are What You Love
