Christ in Culture (From Daniel) - Lesson 2

Driven

Monty Pettyjohn

The speaker emphasizes that culture is pervasive, influencing every aspect of our lives, but warns against letting it drive our values and morals. While culture has its benefits, such as fostering community and promoting good practices, it often conflicts with the will of God. Jesus, although born into culture, was driven by divine will, not cultural norms. Christians should follow his example by anchoring themselves in scripture and divine wisdom. The speaker encourages self-reflection on whether one's actions are influenced by culture or by God's will, advocating for a driven, purposeful life rooted in divine guidance rather than cultural influence.
