Pressing Issues

Thousands of people will flock to beach getaways up and down the coastlines. Full of sunscreen and exuberance, families will descend looking for a glimpse at the majestic expanse of the ocean or the marvel of a dolphin. Little boys and girls will build sandcastles with moats and buckets as they pray the water doesn’t destroy the castle before they leave. It’s a game, though. The longer you stay, the greater the tides will change (and offer an aqua battering ram to your creation). Such is life. Tides come. Tides go.

Culture moves like tides. The tides of political and social change come with the regularity of a voting cycle and get bolstered by media consumption. The speed of change fits the seismic vision of the aggressor. Good men can quickly become beholden to the tides of change, unrest, and believable conspiracies. All the while being lost in a sea of like-minded bullies burgeoning others with an offer of “truth.” However, good men need not stick their heads in the sand and ignore reality, but they needn’t get so caught up with the temporary that they forsake the eternal.

We may stand against the tidal force for the gospel’s sake or learn to enjoy the waves with the hope of the gospel. The world longs for godly men to know the difference. What matters is the gospel. The gospel has eternal value and life-changing merit today. Eternity starts today.

 

I am thankful that our lives are not built upon sand; they are built upon the Rock.

 

Do something.

Dare greatly.

Be a better man.
