We're not talking about real porches; we're talking about metaphorical ones. Abraham Kuyper once spoke of Christendom as a "forecourt" that prepared people to enter into the church. In one of the last articles he wrote before his death, Tim Keller observed that since the forecourt of Christendom has mostly disappeared, Christians need to be intentional about building porches. In Keller's opinion, hospitality, apologetics, and forgiveness provide three good starting points.
In this episode, we discuss a yet-to-be-published article from Keller Center fellow James Eglinton that explores these ideas.
