ABSTRACT

There are two major streams in defining Christian cultural ministry. One has as its heart the understanding of cultural ministry as an important tactical means to achieve missionary purposes of evangelism and expand cultural influences within the framework of ‘cultural mission.’ The other is a stream that focuses on a cultural connection between the Christian churches and various forms of public communities. It understands cultural ministry as a mission designed to form and develop public communities in response to their cultural needs. Church cafes, church libraries and cultural centers can be considered as representative channels of such cultural ministries. Considering comprehensively the Christians’ faithful life and practice for the Kingdom of God in holistic terms, I intend to explore theological foundations of Christian cultural ministry with a focus on holistic interpretations of the cultural mandate. To this end, scholars who have faithfully developed the holistic nature of creation and salvation in contemporary theology will be noted. They include Jürgen Moltmann and Richard J. Mouw. Lastly, I will compare and evaluate these two, highlighting similarities and differences, and describe conclusively theological foundations of cultural ministry.
