CLB Book Club

The Discussion Begins October 4th! 

Why This Book? (Buy it at F&F Bookstore Online)
The seminars at 2010 CLB Convention focused on reaching a changing culture. Postmodernism, whether you are familiar with that term or not, has permeated our culture. It has influenced the young and old alike, forcing the local church to seriously think about the way that it reaches its community. A common description of North America is that it is a melting pot of nationalities. It is also a melting pot of philosophy and religion. Christians can no longer expect their neighbor to understand the basics of Christianity, or care about attending church on Easter Sunday.

So what can the Church do? First, we need to understand our culture. Dr. Eugene Boe opened the seminar time with a session titled Ministry in a Post-Christian World (See video below). In it, he mentioned this book, Postmodernism 101 by Heath White. Heath White has also written an article in the current issue of Faith & Fellowship Magazine. We invite you to read this book and discuss a chapter each week, bringing us to a unified understanding of what kind of culture we are attempting to reach today.
