Building a Culture
Culture is…• Stories
• Symbols
• Heroes
• Myths
• Narratives
Building a Culture
Defining Culture“A culture . . . is far more complex than the popular definition,
‘what people do around here’. Rather a culture tells its members how to view the world and, above all, how to experience it emotionally. In this sense, a culture primarily resides deep in the hearts of people, not in their heads as structures do. It is the emotional glue that binds people together, giving them a comforting sense of meaning and predictability, often in a confusing and changing world.”
Fr. Gerry Arbuckle, S.M.
