Are you interested in the role of culture in the church? Do you want to learn more about the benefits and drawbacks of contextualisation?

Then join us for a debate on this important topic.

On one hand, advocates of contextualisation argue that it can create a more inclusive and welcoming environment in the church. By incorporating cultural practices and traditions, the church can better understand and connect with its members from diverse backgrounds. This approach can lead to a more meaningful worship experience and foster greater relationships among believers.

On the other hand, critics of contextualisation are concerned that it may compromise the integrity of the gospel message. By accommodating cultural practices that may be in conflict with biblical principles, the church risks diluting its beliefs and weakening its ability to stand firm in the face of cultural pressures. They argue that the church should prioritise the essential truths of the faith over cultural expressions.

So, which side do you fall on? Join us for a lively debate on the merits and pitfalls of contextualisation in the church. Engage with both perspectives and come to your own conclusion about the role of culture in worship. Don\’t miss this opportunity to learn and grow in your faith.
