This modern guide to hard conversations equips Christians with emotional intelligence and a conversational framework for telling the truth without losing the person.
Many Christians feel unprepared in what to say and how to say it when it comes to online and in-person discussions about morality, sexuality, and truth itself. Forgive Me If I Was Rude offers a clear, compassionate framework for engaging in those conversations effectively. Bridging the gap between intellect and empathy, this highly applicable book helps us:
- Gain confidence to discuss hard topics we once avoided.
- Learn biblically-based answers to the hardest faith questions that we wrestle with ourselves.
- Understand how to remain physically and emotionally grounded when conversations turn tense.
Each chapter in Forgive Me If I Was Rude ends with “Curious Conversations”: a sample dialogue between a believer and a skeptic, complete with objections, rebuttals, and modeled responses. Boldness and grace work together when our goal is not to win arguments but to win hearts.
