• 31.15 Engaging post-Christian worldviews (Kamal Weerakoon)

  How can we respond to the complex & contradictory opportunities to present Christ to contemporary culture? This workshop outlines emerging worldviews—liberty, morality, religion, and spirituality—and shows how each one misunderstands the gospel in different ways. Kamal Weerakoon explores how they blind people to their need for Christ by proposing alternative ways of salvation. Understanding these belief systems and the ways of life they inculcate will help us minister to the different people we will encounter in this time of change.Kamal is an assistant minister at Gracepoint Presbyterian church and an adjunct lecturer at Christ College (Sydney) and the Reformed Theological College (Melbourne).YouTube VersionCREDITS:The Reach Australia Podcast is brought to you by ⁠⁠Reach Australia⁠⁠To pray for Reach Australia, join our ⁠⁠WhatsApp Group⁠⁠For ideas or questions please email ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠Support Reach Australia's online library

• 31.10 Mission for the glory of God (Des Smith)

  The ultimate goal of salvation, and therefore mission, is that people would glorify God for his mercy. Des says mission flows from two deep convictions: first, a grief that people are robbing God of the glory he deserves; second, a longing for them to see, enjoy, and share in that glory forever. His challenge to Christian leaders is this: don’t let strategy be your fuel. Let your fire for mission be driven by the glory of God and keep that fire burning by fixing your eyes on Jesus, the radiance of God's glory.Des was the Senior Pastor at Trinity Church Adelaide and is now helping to plant Trinity Church Lockleys, where he now serves.YouTube VersionCREDITS:The Reach Australia Podcast is brought to you by ⁠⁠Reach Australia⁠⁠To pray for Reach Australia, join our ⁠⁠WhatsApp Group⁠⁠For ideas or questions please email ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠Support Reach Australia's online library
