What does it look like to dialogue in a manner that honors Christ? That's our topic today. Special guest Principal Dustin Williams joins the show along with Chelsea Carrier and Bryce Ballard.
Together we consider the following specific questions:
- How does Scripture address the idea of arguing or giving an argument?
- What does it mean to have a productive dialogue?
- What are ways to find common ground with another person? How we do handle presuppositions?
- How do you know if someone you’re arguing with is sincere?
- In light of our current climate (especially regarding COVID-19 and the death of George Floyd), what are some ways we can hold productive dialogue with one another?
