Logan, Jr. encourages readers to see the dangers of \"false witness\" among Christians, especially when dealing with disagreements, which can cause damage to individuals, the church, and the good name of Jesus.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBy exploring what it means to be a true witness in the Bible and the Christian church, Logan emphasizes the power of words--both divine and human--and explains how our Christian responsibility is to honor others in truth and respect, especially when we disagree.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis powerful book draws on Scripture and historical evidence of all the damage that verbal nastiness of Christians has done to the cause of Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChristians often disagree with one another and, because they are Christians, they tend to hold their beliefs very strongly. This sometimes leads us to speak harshly to and about one another. But the Bible has more to say about the way we speak than it does about almost anything else, and \u003ci\u003eThe Good Name\u003c\/i\u003e examines how we may express our disagreements in a way that honors Jesus.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLogan provides biblical wisdom and practical help through specific examples of how to talk to and about those with whom we disagree on \"hot button issues,\" such as abortion, evolution, same-sex marriage, the place of women in Trauma and Abuse, and so on.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhile encouraging readers to honor the good name of Jesus and love their neighbors, Logan also explores how Christians have undermined the gospel throughout church history. But words have the power to heal, not just hurt, and this resource outlines how to be winsome and respectful in all conversations, especially disagreements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Samuel T.
