Gabe Lyons, Jon Tyson, Tyler Wigg-Stevenson, Shannon Sedgwick Davis and Nicole Baker Fulgham recently talked with ABC News about the new face of American Christianity.
A great conversation!
I love their posture and their thoughts. No left or right. No young or old. Just people who want to make a real difference in the world in the name of Jesus.
They talk about adoption issues, education, nuclear proliferation, AIDS, poverty, Joseph Kony and more.
The upcoming generation of Christians will not be defined by one or two issues — and I believe we’re interested in looking more outward than inward.
No more us vs. them.
And I firmly believe that the world should be better because followers of him live in it. Everyone should live better lives because they live by Christians.
And that goes beyond just “Christians.”
I hope that you live a better life because you know me — or live by me — or read something I wrote along the way. It’s not an egotistical thing. I just take ownership of this broader idea and hope that I’m making your world better in some form or fashion.
“I’m excited about a church that shows up… and shows up on time… living out tenants of justice and mercy that is thick in the Bible that I believe in — and one that’s daring and courageous and willing to jump off a cliff for it.”
– Shannon Sedgwick Davis
