As followers of Christ, we’re called to that same kind of love—one that holds fast to God’s Word while honoring the dignity of every person.
No, we don’t cancel people. But we also don’t compromise. We can appreciate someone’s talent, mourn their drift from truth, and still love them enough to speak what’s true.
Our Hope Isn’t in Influencers—It’s in Christ
If you’re wrestling with how to process all of this, let me encourage you:
- Stay grounded in the Word of God.
- Don’t be discipled by influencers—be discipled by Jesus.
- Let truth shape your compassion, and let compassion keep you humble.
- Pray for those who influence others, and ask God to keep your own heart anchored in him.
Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is our Living Hope and the unshakable foundation for our lives.
Take a moment today to pray for a specific Christian leader or influencer who is in the public eye. Ask God to give them courage, clarity, and conviction to stand firm in truth—even when the cultural pressure to conform is intense.
And while you’re at it, ask him to do the same in your heart.
Because faithfulness matters more than fame.
