Reflecting upon how we feel we are called to impact the contemporary world through loving and faithful engagement with diverse religious communities in true, pure koinonia, it is apparent we can be salt and light through accepting and engaging with others of different religious/cultural backgrounds gracefully. In our respective work places we will enter upon leaving SAU, we both will necessarily be involved in translation and profound interpretation different cultures. It is going to be essential that we engage with others and their different perspectives in ways reflective of Christ's love; and that demonstrates total appreciation for them/their particular background. In order to be salt and light, we must be committed to interacting with the different lifestyles and customs we will encounter backstage within our theatre production family or our museum patrons lovingly. We will have to, in our immersion with others and their cultures in these vastly diverse arenas of bilingual theatrical production and Dutch museum archival, learn to understand, appreciate, and cooperate with all the different cultures and faiths with which we must necessarily associate; following and reflecting as greatly as possible Christ's perfect example of total respect of all humanity. In loving all mankind and being willing to fellowship with them in intimate, impactful manners and arenas, we believe we will be able to fulfill God's charge to us to be his salt and light here on earth and to help spread his love to all our beloved brothers and sisters spanning a wide and diverse array of religious and cultural belief.

This particular article demonstrates an intriguing and definitely relevant dilemma to many current Christians such as ourselves in regards to developing true and faithful fellowship; and promotes our stance of what we feel God is calling us to accomplish in being salt and light of interacting with all people with complete tolerance and grace - regardless of how different they may be or circumstances that may try to discourage us from loving these beautiful creations of God as he first loved us.
