Guiding question: how can we enter contentious conversations with a Biblical mindset? First, open your Bibles and read Acts 17. http://web.mit.edu/jywang/www/cef/Bible/NIV/NIV_Bible/ACTS+17.html#:~:text=Bible%20Gateway%20Acts%2017%20%3A%3A%20NIV&text=When%20they%20had%20passed%20through,there%20was%20a%20Jewish%20synagogue.&text=explaining%20and%20proving%20that%20the,and%20rise%20from%20the%20dead.&text=They%20are%20all%20defying%20Caesar’s,king%2C%20one%20called%20Jesus.%22 Second, research the word irenic. Third, draft a response to the following: What can we as Christians learn about persuasion from Acts 17? Using Acts 17 (and any other Scripture), outline ways we as Christians can pursue argument with Biblical foundation. How does this Biblical posture relate to the term irenic? Fourth, post a 250-300 word summary of your findings on the class discussion board.
