You Might Be An Evangelical If...#3

Three more....

If your mental image of Jesus includes any of the following:
    a) blue eyes
    b) long, flowing, perfectly-conditioned hair
    c) plucked eyebrows
    d) any piece of clothing with an American flag on it

    ….. you might be an evangelical. Eric Priest

If your mental picture of Jesus and the 12 disciples is based on flannel board cut-outs…you might be an evangelical. Catherine Claire

If you have  considered adding puppeteering, pantomiming, balloon-animal-making, and approaching random strangers as skill sets for your resume…you might be an evangelical. Catherine Claire

What do you mean? Jesus and His disciples weren't made of felt?

If you end a sentence about a planned event with, "Lord willing" (as in, "We're going to the beach Saturday, Lord willing.")... you might be an evangelical. (Of course, if you say it in Arabic - "In'shallah" - you might be a Muslim.)

If you think a church plant is what happens after a church split, you might be an evangelical.

Welcome to CGO


  • Welcome to Common Grounds Online. Readers of Common Grounds have suggested a website to continue the explorations they began in the book. In keeping with the interactions of Professor MacGregor, Brad, Lauren and Jarrod, the theme of this site is ‘learning and living the Christian story.’

    I have invited friends, and a few friends of friends, to communicate aspects of the Christian story that have been significant in their own lives. We’re all trying to find joy and pleasure in this life and the next, but often we forfeit the joy that could be ours by living out foolish, competing scripts. What distinguishes Common Grounds Online Contributors is not our own goodness, achievement or service, but rather the recognition of our need of God’s grace abounding in our lives.
