Jon Pavlovitz on being a recovering Christian know-it-all.
"When they hear another follower of Jesus share their doubts or deviations, whether about theological concepts or Church doctrine or even regarding the fundamental issues of God and faith, they’re forced to consider their own questions, if even for a moment. They have to confront the things they may passionately argue, yet not be quite certain of—and that can be terrifying."

Post a Comment
Ground-rules for comments:
1) Identify yourself by observing social decorum and use your real name.
2) Please stick to the subject of the post. Introducing extraneous issues makes it confusing for everyone.
3) Relevant queries, informed comments and disagreement are welcomed, but don't use this as a soap-box to vent your pet views or to simply to be obnoxious.
4) State your query concisely and make your comment with regard for other readers.
5) Be honorable and avoid insults and slurs, and focus on engagement with the issues and data. Comments with personal attacks or insults will not be tolerated. Refutation, declaring an error, all welcome and appropriate, but keep it polite and fair.
