Christianese – What Is It And How To Use It

June 25, 2021

Can you finish the phrase?

“God is good, all the time”

Today we’re talking about Christianese:

* What is it? (1:29)* Should we use it? (6:24)* Where should we use it? (8:03, 11:03)

Join Peter, Roy, Michael, Krista, and Luke (who is new to our podcasts but a long-time part of our blog team) as they discuss this “little dialect that’s unique to Christian circles.”

Any form of “-ese” can create and give a sense of community and identity; but won’t it build walls? Is that what Christians should be doing?
