What is the CandMA's stance on cultural engagement?

The stance of the Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA) on cultural engagement is centered around the idea of encouraging cultural engagement that reflects the gospel. This approach means that the organization advocates for its members to actively interact with and participate in various aspects of culture, while always aligning their actions and messages with biblical principles and the teachings of Jesus Christ.

This encourages believers to engage thoughtfully and purposefully with the world around them, promoting values such as love, justice, compassion, and grace in all cultural contexts. By doing so, the C&MA seeks to demonstrate the relevance of the gospel in contemporary society and to be a transformative presence in various cultural spheres. This engagement is not about isolating from culture or conforming indiscriminately to it, but rather understanding, interacting with, and positively influencing cultural dynamics in a way that honors God and advances His mission.
