Should Christians Care About Image?

Posted on 13. Oct, 2007 by in evangelism, stories

Time Magazine recently published an article titled, Christianity’s Image Problem. Here is what the article said about how non-Christians view Christians,

…non-Christians’ biggest complaints about the faith are not immediately theological: Jesus and the Bible get relatively good marks. Rather, he sees resentment as focused on perceived Christian attitudes. Nine out of ten outsiders found Christians too “anti-homosexual,” and nearly as many perceived it as “hypocritical” and “judgmental.” Seventy-five percent found it “too involved in politics.”

I think we should care about what non-Christians think. I am not saying that we should allow their thoughts to influence our beliefs.

    I was just talking to someone about CCV the other day and she told me how she won’t go to church because she works with a “christian” who tells her all the time about how she is sinful because if the things she does and tells her often that she will be sorry in the future. very condemning . . .how do you even try to follow that?
