Moulding culture: Reflect

Lord, I am conscious of the anxiety prevalent in my workplace and community. Please also enable me to notice my own anxiety.

As Archbishop Derek Worlock described it, ‘Culture is the way we do things round here.’ Culture is not neutral – it either encourages or diminishes life. Yet, like the air we breathe, we may not be consciously aware of it. Notice where your anxiety may stem from perceptions of what others think of you. Where might an unchecked desire for approval get in the way of your capacity to impact culture?
