Friends, We have to learn how to STAND FIRM on God’s word and still show the love of God. So how do you do this…. One way I believe is to PRAY Isaiah 11:2 over our lives EVERY single day. Lord, show us how to counter this culture that is spiraling out of control. Give us these  spirits this verse says to show grace and speak the Gospel with compassion.

The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him—
the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding,
the Spirit of counsel and of might,
the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord—
and he will delight in the fear of the Lord.

“As Christians, many of us fear that taking a stance on same-sex marriage, abortion, and other “hot button” issues of our day can hurt our witness. But we were never called to be popular, and the gospel is always the greatest offense in any culture.”

In this video, David Platt talks about how taking a stance on cultural issues can actually give us opportunities to share the gospel- David Platt
