I am from a tiny town that most people will never even hear of, much less visit. We sit on a little patch of nowhere in southwest Colorado where our identity is pulled between the desert and the mountains.

SpongeBob comes out as an LGBT+ “ally,” Lil Nas X has a homosexual relationship with Satan in a music video and the Equality Act is on the doorstep of the United States Senate.

In today’s culture of division, compromise seems to be the best and easiest solution. However, there will never be a “right time” to compromise on biblical principles. Even when it feels uncomfortable. Dietrich Bonhoeffer knew this as he stood against Nazi Germany, unwavering in his Christian convictions.
