Love people. Be honest about ideas. That rule hasn't changed in more than three decades, and it's the only way to talk about faith and culture without losing your soul or your neighbor.
We love everyone. We're commanded to. The critique is aimed at ideas, never at individuals. God's not gray, and neither is His Word, but the way we carry it should be full of grace. If you feel the pressure between what you believe and what everyone around you believes, you're not alone, and you won't be talked down to here.
These devotionals on faith and culture each take one passage and one question and stay there. This is not a political feed. If you disagree with the church on some of this, read the passage and let it do the arguing.

Yes. These are written for people who want to understand what the Bible says before they decide what they think. You won't be talked down to.
