Christians and atheists start a calmer dialogue

Posted by Helen on: 05.14.2007 /

Last week the Christian Science Monitor posted the article Christians and atheists start a calmer dialogue. It features Jim, Hemant and Matt.

We had a flurry of visitors yesterday when Yahoo featured this article on their home page. If you’re here because you saw the article there, welcome!

This part shows where Off The Map is headed.

Henderson’s experiences have led him, with his “Off The Map” venture, into “something larger than evangelism,” what he calls “otherliness.” Otherliness — “the spirituality of serving others” — involves “drawing people into the idea of paying real attention to each other, of listening.” He wants to teach individuals and groups of all kinds how to do a much better job of listening to those they interact with.

Otherlyness embodies the heart of what we are about.
