The Cross-Pressured Life
Christians are secularized just the same as the secular are Christianized, but neither are either brave enough to admit it, or aware enough to articulate it.

It appears that there are systemic issues within the secular humanist philosophy that prevent meaningful community from developing, and thus prevent secular humanism from accomplishing it’s stated purpose.
When we come to Christ, we are trading in the law of sin and death that resides inside of us (Romans 7:23), and trading it in for what James calls “the perfect law, the law of liberty” (James 1:25).
Countless men and women fight a measureless battle to resist sin, intentionally choosing the harder path, and all to the glory of the Lord, trusting that His glory is a more worthy pursuit than their own desires. That’s biblical manhood and womanhood and, dare I say it, Christlikeness, at its pinnacle.
A picture of Christ and the church that’s been marred by divorce does not alter the reality that Christ has promised to never leave you nor forsake you.
The pinnacle of human flourishing and fulfillment is not found in social status, acclaim, or the attainment of pleasure. For us to say such or to live in such a way proves that we don’t truly consider the humanity of Christ as the supreme example of what we ought to be.
