I'll be leading in worship at the biennial CIVA conference in Minneapolis from June 18th-21st. From the website:
While Christians have long-long debated the nature of their relationship to “culture,” they have made relatively little progress in actually defining what this “culture” is. The word “culture” is often joined to other terms to generate curious conjunctions such as “High Culture,” “pop-culture,” “visual culture,” “the culture wars,” and “cultural production.” To state the obvious, our engagement with contemporary culture is complex and the nature of this complexity is the central theme of the 2009 CIVA Biennial Conference.
With Miroslav Volf as the main speaker this is sure to be an amazing weekend. If you're in the area, or if you can find a way to get to MSP, I very much encourage to take part in this event. To register go here.
Brian,
What a privilege. Wish I could be there but I think I am going to go to the Karl Barth meeting at Princeton. You can't miss with Miroslav Volf. Do well as always!
