"CultureCross has helped me see that though there are elements of culture that allow us to see the world differently, there is still more that unites us than divides us."

-Lyndsay, CultureCross Participant 

"The CultureCross program was a fun and thought- provoking experience that I highly recommend all churches take part in. As the places we live become more multicultural, so will our churches."

Jeffrey, CultureCross Participant 

 

Purpose: To introduce the foundational ideas of ‘collectivistic’ and ‘individualistic’ cultures and how our culture affects the way we connect with others.

Purpose: To explore three worldview categories in order to understand how they are expressed today and their connection to the fall of humanity.

Purpose: To learn how cultural worldviews affect every area of a person’s life – including spiritual practices and the understanding of the spiritual world.

Purpose: To discover how the Bible addresses the desires expressed by all cultural worldviews, and how these desires are satisfied in Jesus.

Purpose: To explore how to identify a person’s cultural worldview and relate to it in ways that compassionately connect their needs to what Jesus offers.

Purpose: To learn about the need for giving and receiving honour in many cultures, and God’s desire to give honour to his children through relationship with him.

Purpose: To explore our attitudes toward making space and time for others in our lives, and to learn what true biblical hospitality looks like – especially in terms of cross-cultural outreach and discipleship.

Purpose: To explore the nature of fear and power and how the worship of idols is connected to our fear and lack of faith.

Purpose: To explore common fears many Christians have when it comes to evangelism and discipleship of others and to present an encouraging and hopeful path forward.

Purpose: To explore communication methods for creating cross-cultural spiritual conversations that lead to an invitation to receive and believe in Jesus.

Purpose: To explore how cultural differences impact discipleship and learn about the elements of our belief, behaviour and belonging that are transformed with conversion to faith in Jesus.

Purpose: To explore how we can strive towards God’s promise of a unified body while still allowing for cultural expression in work and worship in the church.
