Can you change culture without being changed by culture?

You probably feel more like an outsider in our culture today than you did ten years ago. If that's the case, you're not alone. The question is: What kind of outsider will you become? 

In Joyful Outsiders, pastors Patrick Miller and Keith Simon will train you how to be a joyful outsider by laying out six ways to navigate a confusing culture at home, at work, and beyond. 

You will:

  • Discover joy by embracing your identity as an outsider
  • Find which of the six ways God is calling you to follow
  • Experience freedom from fear of the world and anger toward it
  • Learn how to both resist and cultivate the world around you
