Emerging Culture Participant's Guide

Our culture is in transition. Some say it is moving from a modern to a postmodern paradigm. And this emerging culture won't just blow over. In order to be effective witnesses and leaders, we need to understand this cultural paradigm shift and proactively plan how we will respond. This guide is designed by Jimmy Long to help you to explore, analyze and define what is occurring all around us. But more than that, it will help you shape your ministry for the rest of the twenty-first century.
