Please listen to this mp3 of the Reform & Resurge 2006 Session 10 with Eric Mason, pastor of Epiphany Fellowship Church in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, as he talks about, "From Reluctance to Representation." Eric Mason gives us a great current cultural perspective as we preach the gospel today by looking at the icons that have affected our view on values today. The focus of cultural study is looking at the ripples of the hip-hop generation. Using Haggai chapter two Eric Mason reveals our purpose for missional living in our land. As ministers we have to stop dividing over form of ministry but concentrate on the function of the ministry as being faithful in expressing the gospel. Likewise if we have a proper view of God's perspective it should challenge us in purpose as well as shape our purpose. This involves us repenting on how we believe the Kingdom is to come and embrace God's plan of the Kingdom, thus truly able to represent God in all areas of our life.

Scott Bartchy is a radical. He believes in a subversive system that embraces those on the fringes of our society and seeks to establish a new way of life that goes against the status quo.
Kind of like Jesus.
Bartchy, currently the Director of the Center for the Study of Religions at UCLA, notes a great gap between the original, early form of church in the first three hundred years of Christianity, and the modern concept of doing church today.
