Faith in the Public Square – Richard E. Simmons III

Faith in the Public Square – Richard E. Simmons III

How should we be sharing our faith in the public square?

Paul gives us some great instruction about dealing with with those outside the faith. In Colossians 4:5-6 he says, “Conduct yourself with wisdom towards outsiders (those outside of the faith). Let your speech be with grace, seasoned as it were with salt, so that you know how to respond to each person.”

I think Paul is following his own instruction and we should too.

Acts 17:16-17 tells of Paul’s time in Athens:

“Now while Paul was waiting for them in Athens, his spirit was being provoked within him as he observed that the city was full of idols. So he was reasoning in the synagogue with the Jews and the God-fearing Gentiles, and in the marketplace every day with those who happened to be present.” >>Watch on YouTube
