When the first Christian missionaries came to the Navajo people they unfortunately brought more than the Gospel. They also brought the message that God could only be worshiped through the Western culture. This workshop offers a collection of stories and lessons learned as Mark Charles journeys to understand what it means to be Navajo and Christian. Issues addressed include: contextualized worship, syncretism, racial reconciliation, diversity, respect for elders and time perception.
