It’s no secret that the world we live in is becoming more and more secular. How should Christians, churches and pastors respond to this trend in a way that honors Jesus? In this workshop, first presented at Foursquare Connection 2025, Pastor Phil Mangenelli describes the influence of secularism in the world and in our churches. Using Scripture, he explains two unhealthy ways the church has dealt with secularism (assimilation and isolation). He helps pastors and leaders identify the presence of secularism in their contexts so that by being more aware of its influence, they can help others find true freedom and flourishing in Jesus.
