Honestly, and this is just from my convos with people from all walks of life, I’ve found that most people usually aren’t mad at us for serving and loving God. What angers them is the fact that most of us they come across, don’t mirror the love of God at all. https://twitter.com/prettigurlzpray/status/1299204812534407168">https://twitter.com/prettigur...
Most of us have all the scriptures memorized, know all the Christianese in the world but we’re so nasty and rude to folks...and use scripture (most of the time outta context but I’ll get to that later) to alienate ppl instead of draw them in.
I’m...not a big fan of most Christians either imma be honest. I legit don’t like most of yal because of the attitude that yal take. Where’s the love in that?
Here’s the thing. You don’t have to compromise the gospel in order to win ppl but a lot of yal don’t even know how to have simple conversations with folks and I really need us to think about what that’s doin to our witness.
In the last 11 years I’ve been preaching I’ve heard, from ppl on all sides of the spectrum that I’m not like other preacher’s they’ve come across and that makes me sad because I shouldn’t be some anomaly. This should be commonplace for any professing believer.
So. Yeah. Folks side eye Christianity for a lot of reasons but I really need us as the body to be honest about the fact that we, Christ’s representatives, have played a part in that side eying as well. It’s a lot of work for us to do.
