North Texas Free Conference

 Christ, Culture and Woke Ideology

 January 28, 2023

Faith Lutheran Church

1701 East Park Blvd. - Plano, Texas 75074

We live in a pagan society that has rejected God’s Word and natural law. Evil is all around us. St. Paul says that we fight against the “spiritual hosts of wickedness” (Ephesians 6:12). It’s easy to be depressed as we see the culture around us getting worse and worse. Yet, Christ won the victory over death and the devil. Sins are paid for by the blood of Christ. By God’s grace, we remain faithful to God’s Word. Affirm the Bible’s support of life, marriage, and family. We, the baptized, are in the world, but we are not of the world. We are a light in a dark world confessing Christ as our Savior.

Rev. Dr. Christian Preus has served as pastor at Mount Hope Lutheran Church since 2016. He received a BA in Classics from the University of North Dakota (2006) and an MA and PhD in Classics from the University of Iowa (2008, 2012). He studied to become a pastor at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, IN. He translated Philip Melanchthon’s Loci Communes 1521 (CPH). He has a regular column in LOGIA and has published numerous articles on the Lutheran exegetical tradition. He is the Chairman of the Board of Regents for Luther Classical College and editor of the quarterly magazine, Christian Culture: A Magazine for Lutherans. He and his wife, Lisa, have nine children. Pastor Preus enjoys skiing and running on the mountain, playing hymns on the piano, playing football with his boys at the park, and talking theology, politics, and history with his wife and children.
