This was my first time hearing the term! It's quickly become an essential part of my vocabulary for describing what I aspire to in our current climate around religion and public discourse 🌿
"People have heard Christians argue their case. There’s no absence of that kind of content. We don't lack communicators. We lack good people that embody the message they are communicating." AMEN!! What Lisa says about the need for incarnational apologetics is vital. If we're not in some measure living "as embodiments of the goodness, kindness, love, and justice of God" how can we be witnesses?
The comments around the “moral decline” of America are so on point and an important nuance in those conversations. This idea that a weird utopian 1950s world was the pinnacle of Christian life is so absurd and unbiblical. People forget that secular culture, whether it seems to align with aspects of faith or not, is still secular culture.
Incarnational apologetics - I like the sound of that!
