It’s no question that we live in a “cancel” culture. It may be tempting to bury our heads in the sand and be sure we never do anything to offend anyone. But that’s not how the Bible calls us to live. Countless times throughout the Bible, men and women of God took a stand for what they believed. And many of them were “cancelled” because of their faith.
As Christians, what should our response be to this cancel culture we live in? We have a special guest today who has experienced firsthand what it feels like to be cancelled by big-tech censorship because she took a stand for her convictions.
She is an author, international speaker and teacher, and a human rights activist. Author of Choose Zoe: A Story of Unplanned Pregnancy and the Case for Life, she speaks regularly about the sanctity of human life.

We’re walking through the Stygian night,
a path so dank and drear,
in which the dim and ghoulish light
is the flicker of our fear.
If we say what we believe,
and sound a clear alarm,
what on earth can we achieve
lost in the madding swarm
of voices on the stolen ether
beholden now to naught
but that coming demon-leader,
that prosperity forgot…
but if conviction’s placed upon the shelves,
we do their job, cancel ourselves.
