How do we reach people today with the message of Jesus?  Our culture we live in is changing so rapidly.  People are different than they were 10, 20, 30 years ago.  There is a different mind set out there.  People look at church and Christians in a way we have not seen before in this country.  Donald Miller, author of Blue Like Jazz, shared a talk at Seattle Pacific University on Thirteen Paradigm Shifts that have been encountered doing Christian ministry in a pagan environment.  Below you will find a link to the notes from this talk.  If you have itunes you can open up the itunes store and type in Seattle Pacific University.  You will scroll down to  number 55 and that should be the talk, Thirteen Paradigm Shifts.  If you do not have itunes on your computer you can go to www.apple.com/itunes/ and download itunes for free.  Have you notes, a pencil, cup a coffee and listen to this talk.  I think this could give us some insight in ministering to people in a post Christian, secular culture.
