Faithfulness in All Things

from Breakpoint · host John Stonestreet and Kasey Leander

Christian faithfulness, especially at a time of cultural chaos, isn't really about trying to do great things for God. In a tweet, my friend Katy Faust of Them Before Us explained:  "Afraid for the nation? Buy a house. Plant a garden. Get married. Have lots of babies. Help your children marry well, be great grandparents. You needn't run for office, start a podcast or lead a thinktank. The most powerful & countercultural work happens in your home."  Amen. She then cited Jeremiah 29:5-6, in which God told the exiles of Judah to "build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce."  It can be easy to equate "greatness" with fame or followers or something loud and big. But God asks for faithfulness in whatever our hand finds to do. That was true for the exiles in Babylon, and it's still true today.

Salt and Light in the Public Square: Charles Colson's Legacy and Vision Union University Charles Colson embodied the very best of what it means to represent Christ in a winsome yet robust way in a contested public square. He advocated for the lost and forgotten in America's prisons. He stood boldly for life, marriage and religious liberty through the Manhattan Declaration, countless Breakpoint articles and radio addresses and his work within the evangelical church as a Southern Baptist. Colson's legacy is one evangelicals and other Christians would do well to consider and emulate as we strive to live out our faith in the public square. With this in mind on the first anniversary of Colson's passing, Union University and the Witherspoon Institute hosted a conference May 2-4, 2013 entitled "Salt and Light in the Public Square: Charles Colson's Legacy and Vision." The conference included keynote addresses by Timothy George, Robert P. George, Garland Hunt and Russell D. Moore.
