About

Being Biblically resilient means the Bible is our first and primary source for life, godliness, and missional engagement.  In a society that is becoming increasingly hostile to anything that resembles orthodox Christianity, it is an approach that avoids the traps of both rigid legalism and progressive relativism. 

 

It represents faithful and intentional cultural discernment, using scripture to filter the ideas and philosophies of our secular age. Above all, being Biblically resilient means allowing the Bible to form our identity, and transform our hearts, minds and characters into people who stand strong and unmovable in a world that is pressing its ideas in on us.
