TCKs (Third-Culture Kids) in the Bible
3 May 2026 - 17 May 2026
A "third-culture kid" (TCK) is someone who spends a significant part of their developmental years (childhood/adolescence) outside of one or both of their parents' home culture. TCKs build diverse relationships but often feel they do not fully belong in either their parents’ culture or the culture in which they live - creating a unique “third culture.” Many of us at Christ Church fall into this category and many in the Bible did too! How did God work in and through them and how might He want to work in and through all of us?

Episode List
1 · Moses
May 03, 2026 · John Hamilton
With our kids in the service, many of whom are TCKs, we start with Moses as a perfect example of someone who didn't completely fit as an Egyptian and didn't completely fit as a Hebrew. While his life was full of struggle, he was used by God for amazing purposes!
2 · Esther

Who knows, maybe God has put you where you are for such a time as this! He many not need you, but He does want you and He invites you to trust Him so that you can go where feet may fail. *audio in Spanish
3 · Daniel & Friends
May 17, 2026 · John Hamilton
Taken to a foreign land and pressured to conform even when it went against the values learned from their parents, the friends in the book of Daniel have a lot to teach us about crossing cultures as worshippers of the One True God.
