Second Thoughts About the Winsome Approach to Cultural Engagement - Grounded Ep. 14
James Wood and Steve sit down to discuss trend in winsome approaches to engaging with non-Christians. Is there perhaps a better way in the future, since previous models don't appear to be as effective in our cultural moment?
Begin Show Notes:
What is "Third-Way Winsomeness"?
Why was this method popular? (Timothy Keller)
How should pastors approach this topic?
Should we just (and only) be nice to our opponents in the culture? (David French)
Did this method work in the past? Would it work now?
What could be wrong with winsomeness, that sounds like a good thing!
How winsome do we see Jesus and the apostles being in the Bible?
We observe Jesus (and the apostle Paul) at times using mockery to make points. Why do that, and is it ever right for us to do this as well?
What is "thinking about politics through the lens of evangelism?"
Is political activism rooted from Biblical principles ever justified? If so, how?
What can we do when there are no ideal political candidates?
How does this play into the role of pastors and their need to protect the flock from wolves? (Acts 20, John 10)
Is Christian involvement in politics for power? What about love thy neighbor, how does this weigh in on the matters of politics?
What do we need in pastors? Bonus, no all of these were addressed in this podcast, but we're adding them to the notes (Clear Biblical instructions, don't mute difficult topics, trust in God, preach the truth, build community and come to the aid of other churches, the church should be a place of refuge)
What would you say to someone who just realized that they might be a "Third-Wayer"?
