TRUTHTELLING IS A RELATIONSHIP ISSUE
Anyone can learn truth and share it. Not everyone can share truth successfully. The critical difference is the relationship between the teller and receiver.

With respect to Christian Nationalism, there are many aspects to relationships ranging from close to distant.  Whether close or distant, truthtellers must think of Christian Nationalists as friends and family and be as patient with them as they would be with a child. Thinking of them as the enemy or stupid is hindrance to sharing truth with them.

But, being close to  Christian Nationalists does not guarantee that they will receive the truth that is shared. In fact, being close to a Christian Nationalist may actually be an impediment to success — not an advantage.

What this means for truthtellers is that they must always be sensitive to the people with whom they share. They must always be respectful and sincere. They must never be impatient. They must never judge them as stupid, slow, or evil. And, above all, they must always apply the “judge not lest you be judged” principle to themselves. Christian Nationalists, being accustomed to being judged, have their antennae tuned to hearing judgement from others and are quick to respond in kind. This creates a serious obstacle to truth telling.
