Addendum

After I reported about the "You can be good without God" slogans on busses, I saw a bus that had an ad that said "You can be good without God but you can't be saved without Jesus." It made me happy, but also a little sad. People need to know what they need to be saved from. That statement wouldn't make much sense to me if I wasn't "religious." I think we as Christians need to be careful about using Christianese. But, that said, it still made me happy. :-)

"Christianese"?!? you crack me up :)

Amen to your comment about using "Christianese"! We can't help people or build meaningful relationships with them if they don't know what we're talking about!

I agree. Helping people understand what sin is and why we need to be saved out of it is definitely not talked about enough when sharing the gospel.
