Sociology is an extremely valuable tool for understanding how society and individuals interact, function, develop, and change. The study of sociology seeks to make sense of what happens in front and behind the scenes of a society. For the sake of clarity, society is defined as a “comprehensive, land-based social grouping that includes all social institutions necessary to satisfy basic human needs” (Popenoe, 86). We live in a secular world and in a society permeated by sin. As Christians we need to have an appropriate biblical response to society and the world around us. The three aspects of society that will be addressed in this document are culture, social norms and customs, and social evils and injustices. First, culture is simply the “shared product of a human group or society” (Popenoe, 53). The two products of culture are immaterial culture and material culture. Nonmaterial culture is basically that which is intangible, such as right and wrong, values ​​and knowledge. Material culture consists of material objects that tend to represent non-material culture. Material culture ranges from monuments to fads and from technology to the banal. All material culture represents non-material culture. A culture can easily be measured by its non-material values. America was originally founded on solid values ​​that are almost abandoned today. Self-discipline and hard work have been replaced by instant gratification and laziness. Furthermore, American material culture is displayed through the products sought after in our materialistic society. The iPod, sports, cars, boats and other luxury items are what are considered the material icons of America. It is becoming increasingly difficult to live a Christian testimony given the negative cultural change in our society. G...... half of the paper...... correctly. All in all, the greatest priority a Christian should have in society is to bring glory to God and be the salt and light of the earth. Christ commanded us to be different and gave us the great commission before leaving for heaven (Matthew, 5). Paul urged the Corinthians to bring glory to God whatever they do (1 Corinthians 10:31). For this purpose, human beings were created. God is the only one who can bring revival and reformation, but we still have to follow the Bible. Every situation is different, but the Bible never changes. The Reformation was a great spiritual shift towards God that led to great positive social change. The man did as God commanded him and God gave grace and blessing. The “five solas” were the principles extrapolated from the Bible and followed by Christian reformers. Despite God's grace, both Christians and society prospered.
