Generations: Understanding and Bridging the Great Divide

Transforming Culture ·

2023/10/09

Welcome back to our second season of Transforming Culture - we're thrilled to have Paul Carter this week talking about generational gaps and how we can interact with other generations well. It's a lot of information, and Paul is a high-level thinker, but he does such a fantastic job of bringing those high-level thoughts and making them accessible to everyone. PLEASE NOTE: We had a few minutes of awkward audio quality during the presentation, and we didn't want to edit that out, so we've

We're back! After a summer of great sessions at MBC, we're pumped to have season two of Transforming Culture ready for you all. Our first episode this season tackles one of the most discussed issues around Muskoka Bible Centre and our public Q&A sessions - the education of our kids. It's a massively important topic, as the education and discipleship of our children is a lasting testimony to so many people, and everyone thinks they've got it right. Todd Morikawa, our teacher in Week 1 at

2023/05/10

Welcome to a bonus episode of Transforming Culture! During our recording sessions last summer, Kevin Wilcox (our episode guest when we talked about Deconstruction) and I discovered that we both had a big passion for the music of Jon Guerra - and it led to the song Citizens being chosen as our theme song for this first season of Transforming Culture. We decided to sit down and talk about that a little bit, and here is that conversation! ----- ----- -----Speaker Bio:Kevin Wilcox is an

Welcome everyone, to our last episode of Season 1 of Transforming Culture!

Our last episode is about unity in the Church, and if we're being honest, it wasn't a topic that we would have considered a controversial culture issue until about March 20, 2020.

Welcome back to Transforming Culture! We are now officially more than halfway through our first season, and we're so excited that we have the chance to share these conversations with all of you.
