Does Culture Matter? The Importance of Vision, History, Theology, and Culture! Kevin Brechbill

[@DerKirchenhocker]

When I came to America the first thing that struck me was the difference in the culture from what I was used to in Germany. Culture is inescapable. A neutral culture does not exist. You can't leave one without absorbing another. In America I see there is a church culture of each denomination. There is the academic culture. There is the music culture. There is the biker culture. There is a drug culture. There is a high society culture. There is the politics culture. There are many others, and each one requires a person to think a certain way, to dress a certain way, to value certain things, etc. Each culture produces different results, If we are wise we will choose carefully which culture we want to be a part of and raise our children in.

Thanks for a great message! Kevin made a statement about how Israel forgot her history. I know that there are very many places that says she forgot 'her' God but I am trying to get friends to think more about 'history'. Would you be able to help me with specific verses?
