Breakpoint

In a culture so captive to a "critical theory mood," the only right and loving response to the hijacking of language is to oppose falsehood and advance truth. This will mean, among other things, refusing to accept or use words and phrases like "stochastic terrorism" which assume all kinds of false and dangerous ideas about who we are.

Every year, our sister organization Prison Fellowship offers a way to spread some Christmas cheer to the children of those incarcerated. It's called Angel Tree.

Wherever you choose to invest, remember that this Giving Tuesday is an incredible opportunity. Because God has given us everything, generosity is part of the Church's living testimony of what God has done for us.

Who will you give to this Giving Tuesday? If Breakpoint and other Colson Center resources have helped you make sense of this culture, we invite you to join us in this work. Go to colsoncenter.org/givingtuesday2022.
