Day two at Greenbelt and my brain cells are already popping a bit. This morning I got listen to Joel Edwards the recently retired chair of Evangelical Alliance who was surprising... E.g. "Jesus would have disturbed the city brokers more than he would the prostitues of soho."
He was talking about what made Evangelicals important. One thing stuck in my mind was when he said that evangelicals are: "Transforming communities after transforning lives."
It's an important part of transforming communities that people of faith bring to regeneration. Socialists and local government would try to change environment to change the people...
Christians have tended to say change people first but the Bible says change people and change the environment.
like most things it is not either or it is both and.
