WHO DO YOU SAY THAT I AM?



For two thousand years, this question that Jesus once asked his followers has been debated passionately. It has been answered in many different ways by many different people. It’s interesting that people outside the church often have a negative view of Christians, but they think highly of Jesus. Many people in our culture want to talk about Jesus. They are not so much interested in our styles of worship, programs, and church government, but they are interested in Jesus.

The Office of Evangelism wants to connect people outside the church with people in the church around conversations about Jesus. So in partnership with a group of students from Princeton Theological Seminary we have created www.whodoyousaythatiam.net, a brand new, innovative, and interactive website that explores this question using the internet and social media. People are invited to give their answers to the Jesus question in text, art, or video.

The mission of this new site is to foster conversation about Jesus, so that people inside the church and beyond the church will encounter more deeply the life-changing love of God. We believe that it is when we live out of this love in Jesus Christ that everything begins to change.
