Larry Sanger is the co-founder of Wikipedia, and he recently published his testimony online. TGC’s Trevin Wax shared his highlights, and I wanted to share my reflections and resolutions after reading it.Script:First, I am resolved to answer questions. I teach high school Sunday School, and Sanger specifically pointed out that his questions as a youth were met with contempt. I don’t want to be a teacher who discourages questions. Instead, I want to encourage them.Second, I am resolved to witness well. Sanger said that some of his favorite people were Christians, and some of them were extremely intelligent. He found this strange, and I want to be that type of believer! I often forget that how we live really does have an impact on people’s perception of faith.Third, I am resolved to preach and teach God’s Word. Sanger was surprised that the Bible could withstand interrogation — and that it was interesting to him! I want to preach and teach in such a way that God’s Word can speak for itself and remain engaging.
