Anchor Points: Stop Speaking Christianese—Start Making Sense

Have you ever listened to a conversation that felt like a foreign language?

Jargon has a way of making outsiders feel… well, outside. And sometimes, we do that very thing when talking about our faith—especially to people who are just beginning to seek God.

That’s the heart of today’s Anchor Point.

Devin Almonte shares a humorous but important reminder: quoting Scripture and using “churchy” phrases doesn’t always communicate love. It can accidentally confuse or overwhelm someone who’s reaching out. So how do we live out and share the gospel in a way that’s clear, kind, and invitational?

🎧 In today’s Anchor Point, Devin explores:

• Why Christian jargon can be a barrier to real connection
• How to listen and speak with clarity, not confusion
• Ways to communicate truth with compassion, not performance

📖 Scripture (NIV):

Colossians 4:6 – “Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.”
