Christian Leaders Speaking a Common Language updated: May 31, 2011 Serving in the political process as a lobbyist, activist and elected officials over the years I've come to the belief that one of the greatest deterrents to the effectiveness of Christian Leaders is their inability to speak a Common Language. Clearly the bible provides the needed guidance for our governing authorities, but understanding how to apply the guidance to today's situations could use some discussion, clarification and examples. This website will be dedicated to unpacking these issues and encouraging a dialogue that will equip our Christian Leaders with the ability to apply God's word in their daily duties and votes. Feedback is encouraged and insights are welcome. Please leave messages on the Guestbook page. |
Just beginning this effort, I think that it will likely start with a training program for people seeking office or serving in office. Following some successful sessions, I'd like to incorporate the learnings into some courses that could be downloaded and taught by anyone who was interested.
To get started, I'll need some input on a variety of topics and some examples where other elected officials have had similar experiences.
More information will be added soon. This site doesn't allow for as much interaction as I'd like, but if you have a lot to share, please feel free to send me an e-mail instead of a guestbook note.
