Culturally Relevant

I'm at school discussing what it means to be culturally relevant. As a pastor, one of the accusations that many people make is that the church is not culturally relevant. We appear to many to be an archaic people group that sing archaic songs and read an archaic book. In reality, there are many churches that are on the cutting edge as far as music taste, and ministry style. As far as the archaic book, all one has to do is read the newspaper to see how up to date the Bible is. The Bible has already told us that Israel would be re-formed (1948) That the European community would unite into one. (EU) That Russia would make an alliance with Iran. (Putin)That China would resurge as a world power. That oil would be the touchpoint of the world's conflict.
On a lighter note, today is my 30th wedding anniversary. Happy anniversary, my love!
