“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
- Jesus, John 14:6
Jesus is the reason.
What is the purpose of Engaging Christianity?
The purpose of
Engaging Christianity
The faith that engages the world. The faith the world can engage.
Christianity is the faith that engages the world—a world that is constantly scrolling for answers, chasing after meaning, navigating conflicting worldviews or reaching for the next quick hit of happiness.
And yet, our world is often fraught with distracting noise, bogged down with uncertainty, and crippled with pain.
Christianity is the one faith the world can engage—it isn’t afraid of hard questions or challenging objections; it doesn’t shy away from criticism or flinch at complacency.
Instead…
It leans in with hope, purpose, peace, identity and offers something real. It is a faith that is rooted in history, anchored in truth, one that is willing to wrestle with real conversations with real people.
Engaging Christianity is a resource that aims to bolster your faith with biblical truth, furnish you with sound answers that point to Jesus, and equip you with relational skills.
We’re everyday people—just like you—navigating difficult conversations, walking through the highs and lows of life, and wondering how to respond when someone we love is struggling, doubting, hurting or rejecting.
So…
How do everyday people —like you and I—engage when the questions feel too big, too hard or too confrontational?
How do we engage if we don’t know the answer? What about when we flat out disagree? How do we point back to Jesus when it feels like all the barriers are up?
How do we cut through the noise of a world that seems to be shouting over the loving whispers of Jesus?
Engaging Christianity will show you how to meaningfully engage in everyday conversations. We don’t just give you answers—we help sharpen your relational skills. Because it’s not just what you say—it’s how you say it.
The goal is never about winning, instead, it’s always about connecting. And always for the sake of sharing the gospel.
What makes our approach different?
We’ll help you learn how to:
Connect and understand others better by using open and permissioned based language
Identify and expose contradictions and logical fallacies in conversations using clarifying statements that don't feel like debate-club traps
Unveil hidden assumptions people may have through active listening skills
Find common ground and keep your cool if conversations hit a friction point
Lovingly challenge ideas and perceptions without blowing up a relationship
We have created a simple 3-step tactic (based on Paul’s approach in Acts 17) that you can use as a guide when engaging in everyday conversation with everyday people as you point to Jesus. It’s called A.E.D. (because yes, the gospel message is literally life-saving):
Affirm – Find common ground. Acknowledge their emotion, perspective, experience or simply the courage it takes to ask hard questions.
Expose – Gently uncover what’s really behind their statements: assumptions, contradictions, or deeper struggles.
Direct – Strategies and tools to lead them back to Jesus.
While we may not have all the answers to life’s toughest and grizzliest questions, we believe in the One who does. And we’re passionate about helping you confidently and compassionately engage in those moments so that you can feel prepared to always point back to Jesus.
