Monergism :: Pop, American & Western Culture

Directory of Theology

Pop, American & Western Culture

...all the calls to "reclaim America for Christ" leave me cold. Our real need is to reclaim the church for Christ. When Christ is exalted in His church, when He is loved and revered and cherised with passion by those who bear His Name - in other words, when the church starts living like the church - then His body cannot help but make an impact on culture.
