What does it look like to live a faithful and fruitful life as a Christian in today’s postmodern culture? How can Christians deal with the challenges of syncretism and legalism in the church as well as a culture that largely values pluralism and popular philosophy and spirituality?

Section 3: Colossians 2: Complete in Christ: (Syncretism and Legalism)
