In 1 Chronicles 12:32, the men of Issachar were said to understand the times and know what Israel ought to do. Toward this aim, these lectures seek to help Christians grow in understanding our current cultural moment in order that they might gain wisdom, understanding, and courage to act with faithfulness as the people of God.

Each Issachar Lecture serves as a stand alone address of a particular cultural idea or moment. However, the desire for these lectures to build upon one another as a collective resource for Christians as they seek to live faithful lives in our time.
