The Bible and hate speech
We've come to a place in American culture where there's a significant and vocal group of people who despise anything biblical.
Some even go so far as calling any view based on the Bible as 'hate speech.'
This environment can really put a chill on sharing your faith.
And it can cause those who love God and believe His Word to feel hesitant and ashamed about standing with Him.
But as Joshua said a long time ago, "Be strong and courageous" (Joshua 1:9).
There's nothing unloving about bringing the truth of God to bear on our world.
And one of the most loving things you can do is show how our Father's design, the Son's sacrifice, and the Spirit's indwelling power is able to turn lives -- and our upside down culture -- right side up.
