The Teacher
The only true Christianity is one where people become disciples of Jesus Christ — Fully submitting every area of their lives to His empowering presence and lordship and teaching others to do the same.
Alternative Response
A Creative Minority is deeply committed to responding to the world around us first and foremost with a heartfelt petition to the Lord through prayer — then acting in step with the Spirit.
Redemptive Participation
Not only does a Creative Minority respond externally with alternative allegiance, but they also order their internal lives around it. When we do this, we are more freed to live in the world — by the power of the Spirit — with Redemptive Participation.
God & Country
As Christians, we are called to live faithfully as dual-citizens of both our earthly home and the Kingdom of Heaven. What does this really look like? Where do our allegiances lie? Listen in as we discuss being a citizen vs. being a zealot.
Resilience & Resistance
As Christians, living with both gospel-centered resilience that displays the hope, love, and power of the gospel of Jesus and resistance to anything that does not glorify God are part and parcel of living as a Creative Minority.
A Story of Remembrance
Throughout all of the Scriptures, God’s people are called to establish communal and personal rhythms that call us to remember who He is, what He’s done, who that makes us, and what we’re called to do.
A Story of Spiritual Renewal
Spiritual renewal — Both personal and communal — comes from dying to self. Esther gets this… And she calls God’s people to fast, and mourn, and weep. To seek God. May we do the same.
A Story of Resistance
“The vulnerability that leads to flourishing requires risk, which is the possibility of loss—the chance that when we act, we will lose something we value.” — Andy Crouch
A Work in People
For Christians, the story [of Esther] is a reminder that God doesn’t abandon his people, no matter how dark their circumstances, how compromised their hearts are, or how hidden he may seem.
