Living in a godless culture in a God-filled world -“They have not sought to distinguish themselves from the trends of the culture nor adequately taught their people how to withstand the cultural onslaught. I’m not saying, I know how to do better, but I think resilience offers a path of resistance and choosing faith in a secular place is more radical than we think. We need bolder believers not more blended in ones.”
Have a great week.
