Confessions of a Post-evangelical

I have made a long journey to the place that I find myself. I was always afraid to deny evangelicalism. I felt that if I did that I would have to deny Christ as well. I have realized that I can leave evangelicalism and find Christ.

Salvation isn't the end. It isn't about getting people saved. Numbers don't matter. It's about disciples. Converts never matter unless they are trained to change the world.

Politics are increasingly unimportant. Liberal/conservative divides are exactly that - divides. They are not of Christ. I'm still a liberal, but it's secondary.

You will never argue a person into the Kingdom. Life is about dialogue. Meeting people where they are. Taking them where God leads.

Acceptance of all Christians' thoughts, opinions, theologies, and beliefs. I don't have it all together. Neither does anyone else. How dare I judge someone's deeply held beliefs just because I don't hold them myself.

I'm changing in my faith and beliefs. I'm pretty sure it's in the right direction.
