5 Minutes with Andy Crouch

This week I had an opportunity to chat with Andy Crouch, one of our Senior Fellows here at the Institute, about his new book Culture Making .  Andy has been a wonderful source of wisdom, ideas, and inspiration to IJM. He has traveled to experience our field work in Africa and India and frequently uses his wide-reaching influence as a writer and speaker to encourage others toward seeking justice for the oppressed. He also blesses us with his gifts in spiritual leadership at our Global Prayer Gatherings that happen each spring.  His official bio can be found here in the Senior Fellows section of our website. For more information and archives of all his writings, be sure to check-out Andy’s website at www.culture-making.com.

I am going to post a few highlights from our conversation. Due to length, I will separate the highlights over several posts. The full transcript will be available in our upcoming Resource Reservoir—or, if you to join the Institute, I will send you a copy on Monday.

BETHANY:  Andy, thanks so much for taking the time to answer a few questions about your book.  To begin, what led you to write this book in the first place?
