I only judge hypocrites - which includes all evangelicals. And I’m pretty kind, yes.

Jesus was an evangelical.

Doesn’t “being on the board” = free labor (volunteer)

This. It's a "by definition" behavior.

How old are you, and you're just now noticing this??

“Kind” people don’t write posts like you just did.

Just not to evangelical Christians. Got it.

Yes, I can see why this might be annoying if I was subjected to this on a daily basis. It's just another tic of speech and demonstrates the speaker isn't that bright. However, I don't really know what you can do about it except tune her out.

*Christianity

It is not about Christianotu, it’s about her

To begin with, just know that I have faith. My faith is very personal to me and I discuss it with no one. I do not believe that it's necessary to clue people in on my faith. I don't think that's how faith works (unless you are in an environment - eg a house of worship - where faith is integral to your experience/belonging there).

I work with a woman who's annoying in some ways - always trying to one-up others, says "I don't really tell people this but my husband's on the board" (you actually do tell us this all the time), and generally sucks the air out of the room. Self-involved is a good descriptor. Something she does frequently is talk about how much she loves Jesus, how she's praying for us, etc etc. I notice this kind of behavior generally from (white, evangelical) Christians. I find it extraordinarily grating. We get it. You're a Christian. It's as though the person - and I'm not just referring to my colleague - is trying to gain kudos for proclaiming their faith. It feels tacky and superficial. Anyone else have this observation?
