Episode 29: Being Offended By The Olympics Opening Ceremonies And Unpacking Pillar 2 - We Hold Conviction Alongside Compassion


Listen Later

We’re unpacking the six pillars of our motto: Don’t stand on issues, walk with people.

This episode focuses on the second pillar: We hold conviction alongside compassion.

The Olympics Opening Ceremony has been a HOT topic, especially among Christians. People were angry, sad, offended, confused—a lot of things. And honestly, I was surprised by the outrage.

I’m digging deep and unpacking my thoughts in the context of our second pillar. 

So how do we do this conviction and compassion thing? Is it possible? I believe it is!

Here are a few tips:

  • Hold a generous view of the other person in your mind
  • Be curious and gentle with other’s stories
  • Be confident in your conviction
