• How do we hold in tension my right to an opinion with your right to an opinion?
• How do we stop into God's desire for us to have influence while not stepping on others?
• What if this is about control via unwanted advice?

Adam looks at these questions and more as he continues talking about The Truth is in the Tension.

This week, Justin moderates a discussion with Rob and Nathan by bringing in questions from previous weeks and allowing them to talk about various political issues with the intent of modeling a civil discussion that honors their relationship.

In the second week of the series, Adam begins by exploring these ideas:

What if humans are made for power?
What if humans are prone to misuse their power?
What if humans have a responsibility to speak truth to power?
What happens if we hold in tension the need to speak truth to power with fact that we are speaking truth to an image bearer of the Holy?

Adam spends time in Genesis as well as Matthew as he discusses The Truth is in the Tension.

In the first week of The Truth is in the Tension series, Adam explores several ideas:

1. The Gospel has public implications.
2. Diversity of culture and ideas is a value of Jesus.
3. Jesus radically emphasized loving enemies and praying for those who persecute you.
4. Jesus cares deeply about and gives priority to those in need.
5. Jesus gives great priority to people and relationships. 
6. Jesus said his followers greatest impact on surrounding culture will be the way they treat one another.
