True Courage in a Secular Culture
Sexuality in our culture calls for Christian courage in a way we overlook
I just wrote and published an article that caused me a lot of anxiety. And if you know me, you can guess why. I hate conflict and controversy, and yet the Lord seems to be calling me more and more into public theology. God has a history of calling his children into waters that scare them. I’m doing my best to trust and walk in faith.
This week, I wrote about true Christian courage in the context of sexual identity politics. What I’m calling for is, I hope, patently biblical and peace-making: understanding, sympathy, and love. The pattern we follow in our world, of course, is the pattern of Christ, who spoke the truth in love, but also with humility.
Please share the article with others who may appreciate it. May God continue to mark his people as those who long to understand so that they can love.
