Cornerstone 2010 - Richard Beck - Week 1

In his talk "Your Teacher Eats with Tax Collectors and Sinners: You, Cornerstone and the Mission of ACU," Dr. Richard Beck explores the tensions we face when we live out the "missional impulse." How are we to be "in but not of" the world? His Spotlight investigates Jesus' command that we should "desire mercy, not sacrifice" using various "ways of knowing"--from the Bible to Shakespeare to science--illustrating the skills at the heart of the Cornerstone experience: the multi-disciplinary exploration of truth and our mission in the world.
