Like you’re unsure of how to live like a Christian in this time and place? There’s good news: You're not alone. Faithful cultural engagement isn’t about having all the answers to the latest issue being discussed on social media. It’s about WHO we are becoming, how we see the world, and, most importantly, how we live in the world as the people of God. Come and cultivate deep roots for a chaotic world at the next Lighthouse Voices event on April 15 at 7PM MT. John Stonestreet will be answering the question, “What does Christian faithfulness look like in a time of unprecedented cultural change?” He will walk through four pillars that can help us understand this moment and live in it with hope and purpose in Christ. Register to attend in-person at the Focus on the Family Welcome Center, or via livestream. This event is free, but space is limited, so register today at colsoncenter.org/lighthouse.  Mental illness and suicide rates have reached critical levels in our culture. As Christians, we have an opportunity to share the hope and healing of Christ with those who feel hopeless. That’s why the Colson Educators created Hope Always: How to be a Force for Life in a Culture of Suicide. In this free online course, Dr. Matthew Sleeth explores today's mental health challenges, highlights how Scripture speaks to sufferers, and provides practical guidance for how we can talk about suicide prevention in our families, churches, and schools. Sign up for Hope Always today and learn how to be a force for life in the places God has called you.

Through commentaries, podcasts, videos, and more, we help Christians better understand what’s happening in the world, and champion what is true and good wherever God has called them. Learn more about the Colson Center here: https://www.colsoncenter.org/  Visit our website and sign up for our email list so that you can stay up to date on what we are doing here and also receive our monthly journal: https://www.colsoncenter.org/strong-women  Join Strong Women on Social Media:  https://www.facebook.com/StrongWomenCC https://www.facebook.com/groups/strongwomencommunitycc/ https://www.instagram.com/strongwomencc/ https://linktr.ee/strongwomencc Â
