When I began to talk to students about Christianity it became apparent very quickly that they held a very negative view of Christians and the gospel. I still recall very clearly the answer two students, one an atheist and the other an agnostic, gave to my question, "What do you think of Christians?" Their reply, "They don't have sex and tell you what not to do". To them Christians and by inference, the gospel, was boring and restrictive. It was not 'good news' but bad news.
