I think we need to have an adversarial mindset. We have to think like criminals. And I mean state actors as that is how I view them. We have to be hardened and prepared.

The problem I see is not nearly enough people have a firm foundation based in anything. We have our faith and the traditions that have been passed down to us.

More and more I think the core problems around us have been caused by a retreat of the church and people of faith from culture. It's on us. The moral decay around us is the absense of the light of the Gospel. We need to stop being ashamed of our heritage and the truth. The world is getting darker because our lights have grown dim.

We have to return to the way of Jesus and have boldness no matter what happens. I'm not trying to preach to everyone. Mostly myself.
