7 Questions for Christians about the Gay Marriage Debate

jacemurray:

Sometimes Christians are really good at looking at complex social issues and begin to immediately stomp all over them like a kid in a muddy rain puddle. Often times we do this on mediums that are not great environments for giving the topic due diligence.

Why should I sit down with a friend over a cup of coffee and have a meaningful conversation, when I can just change my facebook profile picture and throw my opinion around like darts in some kind of passive aggressive temper tantrum.

Barnabas Piper, son of popular hyper-conservative Calvinist pastor John Piper, writes a really great article about seven significant questions that a Christian should ask themselves before getting involved in the Gay Marriage Debate. I think it’s really worth the read, you can check it out in the linked title above.

This is good stuff. Thanks for posting the link, Jace.

There’s a lot more I’d like to say about this, but more than anything, I think I have enough of my own sinful nature to deal with before I can even think about worrying about someone else’s.
