Christians are simultaneously called to be distinct from the world and deeply present within it — and holding that tension faithfully is one of the most demanding aspects of the Christian life.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Jesus prays in John 17 that the Father would not take his disciples out of the world but protect them in it. How does that prayer shape your posture toward culture, society, and the people around you who don't yet believe?
2.Chan talks about being 'in the world but not of it.' In practical terms, what does it look like to be genuinely present in your community without being conformed to it?
3.Matthew 5:13–16 says we are salt and light. What happens to salt when it loses its saltiness? How does that image speak to the danger of Christians who blend in so thoroughly that they have no transforming effect?
