Exploring Culture and Christian Community in Church and Society in Denmark
• Open Seminar for Danish and international
pastors and church leaders.
This time we will dig deeper into questions of culture, identity and belonging. The seminar explores how identity and belonging are formed and negotiated at the intersection of culture, church, and society. Danish and migrant congregations experience complex layers of belonging shaped by national culture, regional identities, migration stories, faith traditions and the universal Christian fellowship.
The theme acknowledges that:
• Belonging and identity are central to Christian life, yet they are often unexamined or assumed.
• Culture shapes both unity and fragmentation – it can build community but can also produce segregation, segmentation and marginalization.
• Christian identity in Denmark interacts with multiple influences such as Danish culture, inherited church traditions, local regional
ties, relationships with other cultures, and the broader ecumenical communion.
• Our perspective includes the place in society, yet the primary focus is on identity and belonging within church communities.
