Question #4 - Is Christianity Too Narrow?

This is a 10-minute collection of subject matter experts discussing the question “Is Christianity too narrow?” It displays the various questions, struggles, and perspectives of these individuals regarding this week’s topic. See what they have to say ...
​

Many people would insist that it’s intolerant or “ignorant to say that Christianity is the only right religion.” But, in the end, it might be best to admit that we’re all exclusivists. All of us make exclusive claims about most things— religion included. Yet the challenge seems to be finding a tone of gentleness in the midst of conversation and even disagreement.

In Jeremiah 29:4–11, God calls his people to be present in their city in a way that enables it to flourish, while remaining focused on God. “Seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper” (Jeremiah 29:7). In other words, the God of the Bible commands his people to be gracious and charitable toward all people—including those who do not share the same faith.

Here are some reflection questions to consider or talk over with a friend ...
Is it possible to have an honest yet graceful dialog about important matters like faith? 
What are some practical ways you can seek the peace and prosperity of our campus and greater community?
How might these actions contribute to the common good in the world?
