Thanksgiving: A Holiday At The Crossroads
Thanksgiving is a holiday that sits at the crossroads of American culture and Christian worship, and (unlike its December cousin) has not been all-but-completely commercialized.
Thanksgiving is one day of the year when everyone—native-born and immigrant, Christian and skeptic, conservative and leftist alike—pause to reflect on all the abundant blessings they have received and give thanks for them. Some of the aforementioned groups do so more consistently than others, of course, but pointing that out is the purpose of another article, like this one from the Colson Center..
Of course it only makes sense to give thanks if you believe God is there, which makes this a great holiday for apologetics opportunities, as well!)
So, whereas the Think Institute is a Christian organization, and whereas we have much to be thankful for in 2021, be it hereby resolved that we are thankful for the following 10 things.
Thank you for sharing 10 things you are thanking God for this Thanksgiving.
Although being a skeptic, it is rather difficult for me to believe God and Christian worship, I would like to learn about them.
Could you please tell me how to understand "apologetics opportunity"？And what does "be it hereby resolved " mean？
Hey I'm just now seeing this. I don't get onto Steemit very often.
An apologetics opportunity is a chance for Christians to give a defense (or "apologetic") for the truth of the Christian message.
"Be it hereby resolved" is an old-timey, government-official way of saying, "It is declared."
