I said this phrase one time while preaching as an early communicator and I cringed! ha! It just came out and as I unpacked what it actually meant... it's not kind or healthy, even if well intentioned. I LOVE YOU! And thank you for loving so well!
I like how, toward the beginning, you talk about how you no longer use christianese out of pressure, culture, or lack of identity. I feel like Christians sometimes use a lack of “Christian language” against other Christians.
Oh absolutely! And it’s such an unhealthy expectation. I’ve personably witnessed be done with my husband dim other people since he’s never submitted to using Christianese.
I feel like I could write a book about christianese that is out of line.
One I actively choose not to say is “give yourself grace.” It’s not about working hard to give myself anything. It’s about receiving grace and love. We have trouble receiving more than we have trouble giving, I think.
