Conference
Living in Exile: Negotiating Faith in a Global Economy
Paul Williams & Rikk Watts
by Paul Williams, trans. Philip Wu
Description:
Christians today find themselves in the uncomfortable position of living in two worlds, each seeking to shape their identity and define their reality. Often the choices between the two are not as obvious as we might expect, yet the tension cannot be escaped. So how do we live as Christians in a secular marketplace? This conference will help us explore this question using an innovative approach to the life of Daniel as an exemplar for our reflection.
