l'Abri Saturday Morning Lecture September 17th 2022
Speaker: Wim Rietkerk
How do you connect the gospel to the more than 50% of Dutch who are not affiliated with any church or religion? Are there any points of contact? Karl Barth said 'NO' ('NEIN'; the title of the shortest and smallest booklet he ever wrote, in 1934). The well-known English theologian N.T. Wright says YES in a recent book, but acknowledges they are broken: 'Broken Signposts - How Christianity makes sense of the world' (2020).
In this first lecture of the fall season we read the speech of the apostle Paul on the Areopagus in Acts 17: a combination of both the YES and the NO. We will discuss whether this is perhaps the most urgent challenge for Christians today: building bridges across the chasm!
