Fernando Gros on World-embracing evangelism

Written on August 26, 2005 – 10:58 pm | by Duncan |

Fernando GrosFernando Gros in New Delhi has posted his concerns about continuing tendencies to divide music into secular and sacred.

“I see it is counterproductive to try and divide the world up into places where God is and God is not and putting cultural artefacts into rigid secular or sacred boxes is often misleading. Those who want to deny the ‘world’ in these ways are often seeking to keep the church pure, rather than keep the mission in tact. In contrast, I’m for world-embracing evangelism, rather than world-denying churchism.”

Good stuff.
