Not to Act is to Act: A Letter to the American Church
Covered in This Session:
- God has no “lanes.” He owns every lane. He desires us to bring our faith out of the church and affect every sphere in culture.
- God calls us to fear Him — not the Gestapo, not the IRS, not the FBI.
- The Lord has given us a glorious call to battle. To miss that, to sit on the sidelines, is the greatest tragedy.
- We need to be brave and speak up — if not for ourselves, then for all the others whose lives are being affected. God commands us to love our neighbors.
- When speaking the truth, we need to be motivated by deep compassion for those who are the victims of wickedness.
