proselytism (and other secular swear words)

it's hard to share Christ. i trust the gospel. but i am far too often short-sighted and selfish in my interests. i ran across this video on the comment thread of a friend's blog a couple years back. it is as striking now as it was then.

proselytism is not a dirty word. and for 2012, i'm reclaiming the dignity of being an authentic believer in a secular setting. i want to speak up and speak clearly. not obnoxiously, but "full of grace, seasoned with salt".
