Evangelicalism had way more fear baked into it than we realizedβfear of βthe world,β fear of getting it wrong, fear of hell.
So much of what we were taughtβevangelism, behavior modification, even Bible studyβwasnβt about encountering the beauty, peace, and radical love of God. It was about defending against an enemy.
We werenβt learning how to loveβwe were learning how to fight. And now, actual empathy gets treated as a threat.
Itβs heartbreaking. But I think more people are starting to wake up to it.
