Purity (Part 3)
Toward a Radically Christian CountercultureSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses the topic of culture and purity, and emphasizes the need for a countercultural consensus among Christians. He touches on the messages in media that assault modesty and purity, and argues that Christians should focus on what is truly valuable and not place undue emphasis on physical appearance. Gregg also encourages Christians to be discerning in their choices and to prioritize purity over worldly pleasures, while being mindful of cultural norms that may not align with biblical values.
