Have We Lost Our Moral Compass?

Dennis Prager, a nationally syndicated radio talk-show host and columnist, would ask younger people if they would save their dog or a stranger first if both were drowning. The majority always voted against the stranger — because, they explained, they loved their dog and they didn’t love the stranger.

Hmmm….

How would you answer that question?

Who would you save first?

I want to highlight a paragraph from an article by Dennis Prager from the National Review Online, ‘Why Young Americans Can’t Think Morally’

What ‘Tron: Legacy’ Can Teach Us About Seeing What’s Right In Front Of Us

As the illusions of this worldview spin around me out of time and frame, the walls of my tower of Babel crumble and fall! One could almost hear the demonic laughter and cheers coming from the darkness of the abyss as each stone smashes to the ground like hardened drops of rain.

It is always night when a man goes from Christ to follow his own purposes. It is always night when a man listens to the call of evil rather than the summons of good. It is always night when hate puts out the light of love. It is always night when a person turns his back on Jesus.

Why “Game Of Thrones” Is Not An Original Idea

We all have desires in life, but what happens when our desires are so self-serving that the ripple effect has a long reaching negative impact on others. I was reading about the story of King Zedekiah and I learned that Game of Thrones is not an original idea.

Let me frame up the story.

How Safe Is Your Fence?

Our story begins with the desire to step into the freedom that God has given us.

Here is the rub…in this freedom we were given the choice to choose the life we wanted to live, but overtime our choices cost us our freedom. On this path to freedom — life happens, control kicks in fueled by fear and our trust quotient with God is effected.

If you’ve stepped into the pages of God’s word you’ve most likely encountered phrases like these. “Fear not” or “Do not fear” or “Have courage”, etc.

Did you know that there are over 100 commands that Jesus offered up in scripture and 20+ of them are related to fear?

Lets start the conversation here…what are you afraid of and why are you afraid of it?

Do You Have The Courage To Stand?

Are you a follower of Jesus Christ? Have you noticed an increase in the hatred towards Christians and God in the world around you?

Since writing my book Heartstone: A Journey Out Of The Midnight Of My Soul, I have taken my story to the social space such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. It didn’t take long for people to reveal their hatred towards God.

I posted this on Easter, take a minute to check out some of the comments.
