"FUSE looks to me like it is applying the static Evanmotional approach to sharing the Christian faith.
Evangelism has in the past 20+ years has relied so much on Evanmotionalism, that it has become right-wing politicized.
The CHURCH will take anybody…"

"Good advice for growing a church.
But for growing THE CHURCH, I’d start with John 12:47, being Evanlogically mindful of Ezekiel 3:27 and Matthew 10:12-14.
This approach may have more secular appeal than Evanmotional Bible thumping."

Re-imagining a quote


Phil,

Thanks for sending me this quote from the Israel Bible Center.

"The Bible does not need to be rewritten, but it needs to be reread."

My re-imagination sees this differently.

The Bible does not need to be rewritten, but it needs to be relearned… and taught better.

Secularism shared Evanlogically.


Secular:  “The goal is not to be liked, it's to be respected.”— Unknown

Evanlogicals:  Just want to be good and faithful servants.

 

Secular:  “Albert Camus noted that ‘integrity has no need of rules’, an observation lamentably in stark conflict with the leadership of today’s American institutions, be they political, governmental,…

Evanlogical confession.


If you make a grievous mistake, then realize it, shouldn’t you correct it?

Organized religion made such a mistake when it officially set December 25th as Christmas.  This overlapped a pagan feast, now called the winter solstice.
