Personal reflection: We live in a culture that works 24/7 to convince us that up is down, down is up, right is wrong, and wrong is to be celebrated. In 2023, we must hold firm to what is true, what is real, and what is good. We must work in our own spheres of influence to illuminate and elevate what is beautiful, good, and true … and alleviate the atrocities that are all around us and are attacking us. We must show in our homes, in our communities, in our schools, in our churches, in our offices, in our politics, that the “father of lies” is not our daddy. In 2023, we must hold on to the Truth. Champion those who tell the truth. And cling to the One who is “The Way, the Truth and the Life.”
