How to communicate EA to the commonsense Christian: has it been done before?
I’m considering writing a series of posts exploring the connection between EA and the common-sense Christianity one might encounter on the street if you were to ask someone about their ‘faith.’
I’ve looked into EA for Christians a bit, and haven’t done a deep dive into their articles yet. I’m wondering what the consensus is on this group, and if anyone involved can give me a synopsis on how that’s been going. Has it been effective?
I’m posting this quick take as a means of feeling out this idea.
This mini-series would probably consist of exploring EA from a commonsense place, considering how the use of Church-language can allow one to communicate more effectively and bypass being seen as a member of the out-group, and hopefully enable more Christians to see this movement as something they may want to be a part of even if they don’t share the same first premises.
I don’t want to put more time into work that has been deeply covered in the community but feel that this is an area I can provide some insight into, as I have my motivations for reconciliation beyond academic interest.
What are your thoughts?
Thank you for sharing this journey. In addition, I will be using the STOPP routine now more often. I implemented it today when I found myself getting overwhelmed by the calls I had to make today and it helped guide me back on track.
This also helped me gain a feel for how the community has grown.
This is inspiring
