Cancel Culture Series

Cancel Culture is a phrase that is heard way too often today. When something is canceled, it is nulled, ended, voided. Done, over, no longer wanted, like a TV show or subscription. But today that same idea is also applied to people, that sense of cancel is the basic idea behind the slang meaning of canceling a person. When a person is canceled, they are no longer supported. Usually if someone is said to be canceled is because they have done something to offend someone else or taken a position that is not popular with the mainstream of thought. We live in hyper sensitive times and because of the ease of communication and social media, we would rather cancel someone than actually deal with them. It might surprise you to find that although the phrase seems fresh, the idea of cancel culture is not new. As a matter of fact, it has been happening for thousands of years. So how do you live as a follower of Jesus in a cancel culture? This series, which features Easter Sunday, gives us a chance to look at how we fit into, work inside, and shape the culture around us that instead of really working through tough issues would rather just erase them and act as if they never existed. It is the perfect playing field for the people of God to have some of their best days and most fun.
