Don’t Condemn Culture…Change it!
Posted under Kary Oberbrunner, The Fine Line
In a previous season of discouragement, I received this encouraging email. Thanks Jenny.
Kary-
I just finished your book “The Fine Line,” and I have to say I honestly expected it to be another
rant/ hate speech against culture. I was skeptical about exactly how you would come to a conclusion, or define the line between Christ and Culture- because before I read this I believed there was no compromise between the two. But I ate my words after the first chapter, and I was amazed by how you put definitions to the “camps” of people I had been noticing for years. This is by far the most insightful Christian text I have read- besides the Bible of course :]
That is what is so good about it though-I feel you came as close to conveying the heart and message of Christ as is humanly possible. You really shoot it straight. I respect that.
I can’t wait to read your other material.Sincerely,
Jenny
Praise God and thanks to the wonderful team at Zondervan for making these types of emails possible.

Kary, I agree with Jenny. Our small group is at chapter 4 and we are loving the book. It’s really got a serious discussion going amongst our 18-30 year olds at our church. Jenny put it perfectly. It’s nice to have those emails to fall back on in times of discouragement.
So glad the book is raising some questions for you and your group. May the Holy Spirit lead you.
