But I am uneasy with [the] term “evangelical” as it is being used so much. Doesn’t it foster sectarianism? Pride? Immaturity? Why do we need an adjective—at least one so prominently used?…I find that I am a little irritated at the compulsive self-identification that goes on…under that label. I don’t mind the positive meanings that are represented, but rather the implicit (maybe explicit) criticism of others who don’t share the label. Too much wall-building takes place in an over-use of the term.
