Forgive Me If I Was Rude

The Art of Having Complicated, Faith-Based Conversations

About this book

This modern guide to hard conversations offers a conversational framework for telling the truth without losing the relationship. 

Many of us feel unprepared in what to say and how to say it when it comes to online and in-person discussions about morality, sexuality, religion, and truth itself. Forgive Me If I Was Rude offers a clear, compassionate framework for engaging in those conversations effectively. Bridging the gap between intellect and empathy, this highly applicable book helps us:

  • Gain confidence to discuss topics we once avoided.
  • Learn biblically-based answers to the questions that we wrestle with ourselves.
  • Understand how to remain physically and emotionally grounded when conversations turn tense.

Each chapter in Forgive Me If I Was Rude ends with "Curious Conversations": a sample dialogue between a believer and a skeptic, complete with objections, rebuttals, and modeled responses. Boldness and grace work together when our goal is not to win arguments but to win hearts.
