Christians are concerned with living in the world in which God has placed us in a way that honors Him, attracts people to Christ, and effects change around us. So often it is difficult to know how to accomplish this. Additionally, we are confronted with conflicting ways to accomplish such a dynamic. What are we to do? Sometimes we need a very simple reminder: hold the truth.

While each one of us needs this reminder, I’m focused on this idea at the moment as I think about High School graduation this week. In fact, my own son graduates Thursday along with thousands of others. I can’t believe I have a son going to college as I’m really not old enough for that! Nevertheless, the time is here. What do I tell him? Maybe you’re facing the same prospect and asking the same question. Of course, your situation may be different. But, the same word God has for my son is the same word He has for me and indeed for you.

Richard Dawkins, the militant atheist asserts that those who believe in God have mental problems. The Kinks, while not popular today, sang about what is increasingly pervasive in our culture: the acceptance of homosexuality in one form or another. But, note their comment on the issue: “it’s a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola,” the transvestite. What do we do in such a world where we are the ones viewed as mixed up and not Richard Dawkins or Lola?

On today’s edition of “Calling for Truth,” we’ll talk about “Holding the Truth.”
