What is the ECP Centre?Equipping Christians for the Public-square Centre (ECP Centre) is a Christian advocacy organization that believes that social conservative Christians need a national voice defending their right to exist, participate in and express themselves in the public square. We are apologists for social conservative Christians. An apologist is someone who defends the faith. The ECP Centre focus is to defend, advocate and equip Christians to vibrantly and unabashedly contributing to the public square. What is a social conservative Christian? This is a Christian who believes that the public square cannot meaningfully exist without the infusion and organizational structure of Christian morality. He is someone who does not separate morality from social policies that influence and direct the economy, environment, education and justice. He is a Christian who believes that loving one's neighbour is best expressed in the contemporary application of the Ten Commandments in the public square. What is the public square? It is our culture. It is the arena of public discourse, art, entertainment, business, philosophy, politics and yes, religion. It is all of these things combined as the montage of a nation's public identity. The problem today is that the public square has become a hostile arena for social-conservative Christians because the public square has been co-opted by a militant Secularism.
