Not THAT Kind Of Christian: Christianity And Abortion

from The Well · host The Well

We all know who THAT kind of Christian is. We see self-professing Christians in America who are attempting to use authoritarian politics to force others to live according to their religion. They do not seem to value diversity. They may see themselves as society's "moral police," looking down on others who do not fit their description of the nuclear family, may seem to be anti-science, and appear to value only one issue, abortion. While it may be difficult for many to see Jesus in this type of Christianity, during this series, we will describe what we believe it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ in 2022 America. Every week, we will address theological questions and contemporary issues that affect our everyday lives.
