Christianese (23 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The church does some really weird things when it comes to dating. You might have done some of them. Courtship, purity rings, contracts, and emotional virginity. If you're a serial dater, you've given away pieces of your heart. If you pray together, you've committed the sin of prayer-sex. And if you've crossed the line, you're doomed forever to leftovers. But for those of us who have already crossed the line - is it too late for us? Are these ideas hurting more than helping? And can the church offer anything more than guilt-trips for sex and dating? A bizarre subculture of Christianese dating has sprung up with really bad advice on all sides. Scare tactics and Bible-shaming have resulted in a panicked paranoia and guilt about sex, but the backlash to Christianese dating has borne a resentful subculture of its own. This tension has caught unwitting Christians in the crossfire of confusion. The church is either bashing sex, or bashing others who bash sex. How can we find the core truth about relationships amidst this reactionary cycle? How can we balance between Hollywood-shallow romance and a restrictive prison of fear? And what about real wisdom for break-ups, heartbreak, lust, pornography, singles, struggling couples, and those navigating the consequences of their sexual regrets? The Christianese Dating Culture starts from scratch about God's heart for us in our relationships. It pulls away the layers of passive-aggressive teaching on dating and asks the bigger questions. It talks about Joshua Harris and courtship and I Kissed Dating Goodbye. It gets personal, about a suicide attempt over a girl and a fifteen year porn addiction. It answers real questions from real people about the gritty, weird, embarrassing endeavor of dating. By dismantling the problematic ideologies of the Christianese church subculture, we can journey together towards the kind of church that Jesus died for - the ultimate romance that transforms us.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Christianese' makes plain the noteworthy words used by those who believe in Jesus (Christians). Christian words often stand apart in their definitions from conventional use of the same words. Written in a friendly manner, 'Christianese' gives life to 285 words, in a style somewhere between an encyclopedia and a novel. Encyclopedias are too detail-filled to be read cover-to-cover. A novel is read cover-to-cover because it is captivating, leading the reader into a different reality. 'Christianese' is meant to have enough detail to give directions into the different reality of faith in Jesus and remain interesting enough to be read cover-to-cover. 'Christianese' is not written from any particular denominational stance. Being objective and unbiased in the definition of each word was the goal, often presenting both sides of a viewpoint when there is disagreement among Christians. It is therefore readable from any background, and illuminating to the reader no matter what the reader's religious standpoint. …

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - ' Every group is a medley of unique individuals that share a common interest. As the group forms, meets, practices, and develops their identity and skills, certain words (like nicknames) are made up, that allow for the common identi¿cation of certain things that are important to the group. As a result, a group-speci¿c jargon is developed. In, for example, a surfing group, learning 'Surferese' becomes part of the initiation process. Mastering the group-specific jargon provides the newer member a feeling of accomplishment and pride. When outsiders overhear you, they may now be able to identify you as 'one of those Surfers.' Being identi¿ed provides you with confirmation that your efforts have not been in vain. But Christianity is not a hobby or a club. Your eternal destiny is changed for the better by joining and continuing. For this reason, at this critical juncture, no new believer in Christ should be driven away or alienated by some human-made jargon. So, in A Handbook for New Christian Believers: Including the Glossary of Christianese, the new believer is supplied with a listing of most of the jargon words and their detailed de¿nitions. This may be the ¿rst time such a listing with de¿nitions has been provided, so please take advantage and familiarize yourself with this handbook and the glossary. You will acquire the knowledge you need to quickly enable and ease the process of (1) getting to know your God and Savior, Jesus Christ, and (2) ¿tting in with the members of your church.'.…
