The local church and cultural resistance

“Over the years I’ve come to believe that pastors are the most important subscribers I have [to the Mars Hill Audio Journal] because I think a local church congregation is the basic unit of cultural resistance. If we are really going to be countercultural — which I think Christians need to be to avoid worldliness — that is not just done as individuals, or as individual families, but you need a community of people, committed to one another and committed to sharing life together, to be countercultural.” –Ken Myers, in his recent interview with Mark Dever, “Christians and Culture with Ken Myers.”
