081 - Tim Muehlhoff: End the Stalemate
Manage episode 428013493 series 3293795
When was the last time you had a real and meaningful conversation? Especially with someone who holds a worldview that differs from yours?
Differences of opinion have always been part of life. For decades, spouses, family members, co-workers, and neighbors have had spirited conversations about politics, social issues, religion, current events, and even sports. But what was different in the past is that these disagreements wouldn’t sever ties between family and friends.
Today, we live in an argumentative “cancel” culture that has led to nearly a third of people reporting they have stopped talking to a friend or family member due to a disagreement. Nearly two-thirds of people say they stay quiet about their beliefs due to the fear of offending others. From cyberbullying to hate speech, demonizing political language, verbal abuse, and intolerance, the vast majority of us―eighty-seven percent―no longer feel safe in public places to share our opinions.
Tim Muehlhoff and Sean McDowell are calling Jesus-followers higher. Can we End the Stalemate and have meaningful conversations?
