Response to Anti-Christian Culture

In this podcast episode, Aaron M. Ren discusses the challenges faced by Christians in the current anti-Christian culture in America. He presents the Three Worlds Analysis, which categorizes different periods of societal views towards Christianity. The positive world, neutral world, and negative world represent the changing attitude towards Christianity, with the negative world being the present state where being a Christian is socially undesirable. Ren explores strategies used in the past, such as the culture war strategy and seeker sensitivity, and analyzes their effectiveness. He emphasizes the importance of personal obedience to God's commands, excellence in all walks of life, and resilience in the face of adversity. Ren also discusses the role of institutional integrity and community strength, suggesting that Christians should pursue ownership and be politically engaged. He concludes by emphasizing the need for Christians to engage missionally and convey the truths of Christianity effectively in a culture that views Christianity as alien.
