Watch out for the story you have playing in your head.
For example...
There's a narrative pushed today that claims...
You are part of a privileged class that has oppressed the less fortunate...
... and because of this you need to lament and repent of your privilege, color, sexuality, heritage, etc...
... and the only way to show you are good and righteous is to reject all that's made our society -- and actively seek to overturn it.
This narrative -- which is being pushed with great force from many directions -- is designed to beat you down with guilt, create division, and manipulate you to fall in line with an evil, godless agenda.
But this narrative is false. And destructive.
Yet there's another narrative that's true, liberating and hopeful.
It's the narrative that though ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Rom.3:23)...
... God has demonstrated His love for us in sending His Son to die for us (Rom.5:8)... restoring us as new creatures in Christ (2 Cor.5:17).
... and today, His kingdom -- which has no end -- is at hand (Mt.4:17)... and He commissions us to partake in the glorious work of teaching the nations to obey Him (Mt.28:18-20).
Now this is the narrative to proclaim today.
This is the story to have playing in your head.
