Have you ever tried to explain your faith journey — and realized halfway through that the person you’re talking to has no idea what you’re saying? You're not alone. For a lot of us, "Christianese" slips in without even thinking about it. We use words like "saved," "born again," or "repented" — words that make total sense inside the church, but leave many people outside the church confused (or worse, tuned out). In his latest article, James Loftin unpacks: - The 5 stages most people go through in their faith journey - Why understanding your own story matters so much - Practical word swaps you can use to make your story clear and compelling - How to prepare to share your story with people from totally different backgrounds If you want your story to actually connect with the people who need to hear it most, this will help. (Bonus: it’ll also give you a fresh appreciation for how God has been at work in your life.)
