What if the church opened a conversation on the question, “Have you ever felt attracted to the way Jesus lived and taught?” It is not asking, “Do you believe in Jesus?” but closer to “Do you believe Jesus?” That could take us toward thinking about what is most important or essential about human nature, because Jesus did call himself “the human one” or “the son of man.”
