How might we be persuasive and civil at the same time? How should we respond to those who ridicule and caricature us? How can we challenge the beliefs of other communities with love and respect?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMuehlhoff and Langer present a model for cultural engagement that integrates communication theory, theology, and Scripture.
