We’re not living in peacetime. We are deep in a Romans 1 world. And it’s not enough to vote right, believe right, or attend church faithfully. If you are not actively contending for truth, you are functionally conceding to lies.

It always starts quietly. A man—respectable, nice, calm—sits in the pew every Sunday. He nods during the sermon, volunteers when asked, keeps his opinions to himself, and never stirs trouble. At home, he’s not cruel. Not unfaithful. Just absent. He trusts the church will do the discipling, the school will do the educating, and the culture? Well, he hopes it won’t get too bad.

But it did. And it is.
