7:00 PM | Evening with Andy Crouch, Respected Christianity Today Editor
Location: Los Angeles Pacific Board Room, East Campus
Come learn more about Andy
Crouch’s new book, “Culture Makers”.
For too long, Christians have long had an insufficient view of culture
and have waged misguided "culture wars." But, says Andy Crouch
we must reclaim the cultural mandate, to be the creative cultivators that God
designed us to be. Culture is what we make of the world, both in creating
cultural artifacts as well as in making sense of the world around us. By
making chairs and omelets, languages and laws, we participate in the good work
of culture-making. For more
information, please contact Andrea C. McAleenan at (626) 815-5327. |

Location: Upper Turner Campus Center and Felix Event Center (Live from Felix Event Center)
Chris Simning, M.A. ’99, discovered this freeing
truth a few years ago on his personal, often painful, spiritual journey.
Afflicted with a debilitating neuromuscular disease, Simning is anything but a
victim. After earning his Master
of Arts in Clinical Psychology: Marriage and Family Therapy at APU, he
immediately jumped into the field with energy and enthusiasm, but soon realized
God was calling him to other work.
