I believe that our faith should be grounded in Scripture as it is applied in our current cultural context. I agree with Dr. Bolger that we must evaluate the things that we as the church oppose due to the “gospel”. Often we avoid being associated with certain aspects of society because of the layers of beliefs and practices that we have added to the gospel over time – when in reality the gospel of Christ might respond quite differently. This goes back to the concept discussed in Monday’s class – the church should strive to become non-conformed to the world while still living within the culture; it’s not a matter of being counter-cultural.
