Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical guide to living in and engaging with culture, while living for God. We all belong to a culture. From the shows we watch to the language we use to the food we eat;culture shapes the way we look at the world, the way we act, the way we think.It affects so much of our lives, and yet we are rarely aware of it. If we are not careful, it can push us away from God's good desires for who we are and how we live in our world. This short,helpful book from the Track series encourages young adults to think about what it means to live in the culture but to follow God's ways rather than the ways of the world. Walt Mueller begins by explaining what culture is, how it affects the way we see the world,and how we can be aware of the differences between what God teaches in His Word and what our culture says is true. He then covers a couple of big issues that young people face where there is a stark difference between biblical truth and wisdom, and the way our friends might see things.

While the topics addressed aren't always simple, they are communicated in a manner that is.

In A Practical Guide to Culture, John Stonestreet and Brett Kunkle explore questions including: What unseen undercurrents are shaping twenty-first-century youth culture? Why do so many kids struggle with identity? How do we talk to kids about same-sex marriage and transgenderism? How can leaders steer kids away from substance abuse and other addictions? How can we ground students in the biblical story and empower them to change the world? With biblical clarity, this is the practical go-to manual to equip kids to rise above the culture.
