McLean, VA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/10/2021 -- The C.S. Lewis Institute, a prominent religious institute in North America, is all set to host Cultural Intelligence with Darrel L. Bock as the main speaker. This hybrid event (in-person and Livestream) will be hosted on November 12th at 8:00 - 9:15 pm EDT in McLean Presbyterian Church, Northern Virginia.

As the main speaker, Darrel will be sharing some views from his book – Cultural Intelligence: Living for God in a Diverse, Pluralistic World, at this event. A Senior Research Professor of New Testament Studies at Dallas Theological Seminary, Darrel L. Bock is the Executive Director for Cultural Engagement at the Howard G. Hendricks Center for Christian Leadership and Cultural Engagement.

Cultural Intelligence: Living for God in a Diverse, Pluralistic World is a timely book that highlights the need to center our beliefs and practices around God's Word while interacting effectively with a contour that is increasingly detached from the biblical truth. In this event, the discussion of the book will be around –

- How the Apostle Paul talked about the culture verses how he spoke to it
- How to have difficult conversations with people who do not agree with how we see the world.

During the event, there will also be a discussion about Biblical love, and people will get to explore two ways to read Scripture and identify which one needs to become a regular part of their "Bible-to-life" teaching. Interested individuals can register themselves for this free event by completing out a simple form present on CSLewisInstitute.org.

Talking more about the book, a representative of The C.S. Lewis Institute stated, "Cultural intelligence requires that we understand the changing world around us and engage these changes in ways that edify the church and winsomely seek after the lost. In Cultural Intelligence, Darrell L. Bock builds a theology of cultural engagement and equips readers to relate well to their culture with an eye on the example set by Paul in the New Testament."

Since 1976, The C.S. Lewis Institute has been focusing on providing leading teachers who can address important issues of the day from the perspective of Biblical orthodoxy and also on the discipline of individuals in small groups. The discipleship resources they provide can be used in Sunday school, Bible study, and other group studies of God and his Word.

All of their resources are available online or can be accessed through the institute's Android and iOS mobile apps. The institute also motivates individuals who have lost hope or feel weaker to overcome the chaos and challenges in their lives.

It doesn't matter whether you have prepared according to the guidebook suggestions, but by being the part of meetings and activities, one thing is certain that once you feel the benefit, you will want to dive in more deeply.

Talking about the 'Keeping the Faith guidebook', a representative of C.S. Lewis Institute stated, "The Keeping the Faith guidebook leads participants through an eight- or nine-month series of high-quality books, group discussions, and family activities, with an emphasis on a vibrant relationship with Jesus, fellowship with other believing families, prayer, Bible study, and practical application."

Apart from Keeping the Faith program, The C.S. Lewis Institute is also providing necessary tools and resources to help people love and worship God during this tough time of COVID-19 pandemic. With these tools and resources, people can benefit in numerous ways as they encourage people to have faith in God, allows them to communicate while they are stuck at home, enables them to reach out to their non-Christian friends during this time of trial, anxiety, and the unknown; and much more.

Besides, The C.S. Lewis Institute provides discipleship resources, including some on prayer, which is available in small-group formats so they can be used in Sunday school, Bible study, and other group studies of God and his Word. All of their resources are available online or can be accessed through the institute's Android and iOS mobile apps. Not just this, the institute also motivates individuals who have lost hope or feeling weaker to overcome the chaos and challenges in their lives.

McLean, VA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/31/2019 -- As we look forward to a new year, we also look forward to the 2020-21 classes of C.S. Lewis Institute's Fellows Program. Founded just over two decades ago, this is a program renowned for transforming lives and having a dynamic impact on churches across America.

Is the Fellows Program right for you? Before we begin the next round of classes in May 2020, you'll have the opportunity to search within and decide if you're ready to apply to be part of a year-long discipleship program that:

- Rewards strong commitment and time investment
- Is designed for believers who are established in their faith (not recent converts)
- Offers a deeper knowledge of and relationship with Christ to those highly motivated to achieve it
- Provides a more profound connection with other believers
- Shows you the possibilities and power of a transformed life

In pursuit of these goals, the Fellows Program mobilizes a unique approach to discipleship. Focused on intensive study, mentorship, interaction and reflection in a small group context, the program provides access to:

- Focused Bible study
- Dynamic Speakers
- Monthly readings of renowned writers
- Experienced one-on-one mentoring
- Effective and transformative discipleship groups

These elements come together to help believers engage in active response to the Word and the Spirit and to find a deeper meaning in what it is to be Christian. The program bolsters and refines their ability to articulate, defend, share and live their faith and makes it possible to joyfully pursue a more Christ-like path in both public and private life.

Doing all this requires a significant commitment. Much like studying in a graduate program, the Fellows Program requires intensive reading, consistent attendance at all scheduled meetings and completion of all assignments. It's designed to be compatible with a busy professional lifestyle, but you can also expect it to become your second-highest priority after your job.

After you've completed the Year One Fellows program, you may apply to the Year Two program, depending on your location. You can find more details about the program and its curriculum online at http://www.cslewisinstitute.org/Fellows_Description.

McLean, VA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/31/2019 -- The C.S. Lewis Institute is proud to present renowned speaker and Christian apologist Andy Bannister in a special event at the Cornerstone Evangelical Free Church this November.

The holidays can be a joyous time, but they can also present us with challenges. There's no doubt that no matter how strong a person is in their faith, the prospect of navigating family dinners, office parties and the sprawling social landscape of "the holidays" as a believer can stir up plenty of anxiety. The religious landscape has gotten politically charged, after all. Faith often gets conflated with a wide variety of secular beliefs, leading to instant defensiveness, arguments or simple disengagement the moment the name "Jesus" comes up.

This is a pretty unfortunate state of affairs at a time of year that, for Christians, is specifically about celebrating the faith and Jesus' birth. The good news is that you don't have to resign yourself to staying quiet about Jesus until you know you're in like-minded company. Approaching the subject with tact and wit, humor and humility, it's possible to share and enjoy simple, sweet lessons and messages of the season with even your grumpiest office Scrooge or prickliest family member. You don't have to be aggressive or court controversy to bring the light of Christ to your Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings.

About Andy Bannister

Joining us to discuss just how to go about all this is noted religious scholar and internationally popular speaker Andy Bannister. Andy is the Director of the Solas Center for Public Christianity, an organization specifically dedicated to helping Christians take the gospel beyond the church, answer questions about the faith and be persuasive, confident and winning in sharing that faith with others. Andy speaks and teaches regularly in the UK, Europe, Canada, the US and across the wider world. He also has a fluent interfaith understanding through holding a Ph.D. in Islamic Studies and has taught about Islam and philosophy in universities across Canada, the US and the UK.

Parents and spiritual teachers can access a free monthly newsletter from the C.S. Lewis Institute to help them engage children in discipleship and learning.

McLean, VA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/20/2019 -- The newsletter, titled Dawn Treader after both the book and the ship in Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia series, is available only via the C.S. Lewis Institute website each month. Readers can access it as a web page online or download it as a PDF or printable file for easier sharing. The newsletter is loosely themed around the concept of a ship visiting various ports on the voyage to discipleship, with monthly "islands" or themes related to topics such as Scripture, worship, obedience and fulfillment.

Within each newsletter, adults will find a short devotional or introduction to the monthly topic and a call to action for how parents and other adults can engage children with this topic. Each newsletter also includes a four-week guided Bible study with weekly readings and questions that adults and children can discuss. The Bible study also provides some big talking points and takeaways that relate the readings to the overall theme of the month to help children begin to understand the relevance of these things.

Each issue of the Dawn Treader comes with some other resources useful for helping adults lead children in spiritual study and discipleship. A resource of the month recommendation provides a short review of a book or other resource individuals can leverage in teaching or working with children. The "Question of the Month" feature further explores the current theme through dialogue between the fictional Theologian Theodore and his friends, as Theo answers their often challenging questions about the Christian faith.

Past questions have included "Why do we all want something more?" and "How do we know the Bible is always right?"

This thoughtful article section is followed by a prayer of the month that adults and children can pray together. Finally, the newsletter is wrapped up with an activity of the month to help get kids more involved in the learning. Activities can include crafts or games designed to help kids interact with the lessons and readings or talk more about the month's theme.

About Dawn Treader
Dawn Treader is free and is an outreach of the C.S. Lewis Institute's Keeping the Faith program. This is a study and fellowship experience that is meant to help adults of all ages, including parents and grandparents, work alongside teens and children as everyone grows in discipleship. Individuals and organizations that are interested in these resources can find out more at the C.S. Lewis Institute.

Individuals can view videos to learn more about prayer and what the Bible says on this subject. The Institute offers a video of D.C. Washington singing the Lord's Prayer from Scripture as the powerful opening to a fundraising event, or users can opt for a video that inspires quiet time with God and prayerful meditation.

For more information or direction on the act of prayer itself, individuals can access a number of articles on the subject. Some articles offered by the Institute cover the reasons prayer is important in the life of a believer and how prayer helps Christians grow. Others discuss the methodology of prayer, including information from the Bible on how people should pray. Some articles delve into the prayer life of C.S. Lewis himself. Users can also access audio recordings of sermons and podcasts via the Institute website, and many of those are dedicated to or touch on the subject of prayer.

For individuals who want to dig even deeper into this topic, the C.S. Lewis Institute provides recommendations and links to books on prayer. Some include Prayer: Experiencing Awe and Intimacy with God by Timothy Keller and What Difference Does Prayer Make? by Paul Miller.

The C.S. Lewis Institute's discipleship resources, including some on prayer, are available in small-group formats, so they can be used in Sunday school, Bible study and other group studies of God and his Word.

Individuals interested in learning more about prayer or making it a bigger part of their lives are invited to make use of all the resources offered for free by the C.S. Lewis Institute. The Institute provides enough material to support a year of delving deeply into prayer, or individuals can also make a study of prayer part of an overall discipleship study.
