Jesus Was Not Popular! Critical Thinking And Discernment Are More Important Than Ever But May Make You Unpopular!

To think critically and to have discernment is a life skill that more and more is being erased in our society. It's been happening for a while and it's insidious. To overthrow reason with cognitive dissonance, shouting and violence is literally 180 degrees in the wrong direction from where we should be going. It is psychological projection weaponized against reasonable people. It is narcissistic bullying and anyone who has ever been in a toxic relationship with a narcissist can probably identify it right away. What we learn by surviving these relationships is that bullies back down when confronted - and firm boundaries send these life force heading back to the shadows from whence they came. How to we maintain our boundaries in this case? We keep speaking. We keep searching ourselves, and sharing our findings. We keep thinking critically, and we do the research ourselves. And we certainly don't do what we're told, just because we're told to do so. Healed people know why the unhealed try to control others, because they themselves are afraid of the power within you. They call you weak to announce their own weakness to the world. We are the powerful elephant, held captive by a small rope and wooden stake. It's time to get moving folks. Your way way way more powerful than you know. It starts with saying "aww hell no, not on my watch" and letting God guide you from there. You don't need to know what you're doing or why, you only need to follow your guidance and know that it's your truth, and it needs to come out. We need you.
