This isn’t a eulogy of Charlie Kirk. The people closest to him are already doing that in profoundly beautiful and poignant ways. It’s also not a call for political or cultural change to save our civil society, though God knows we need both. No, this post is a call to God’s people—hopefully a clarion call—to hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church in this moment. Because watershed moments require watershed responses.

Has Babylon's system already infiltrated the Church?! Here are some tools to help us illuminate the weeds, eliminate the source, and heal the hurt...

Babylon’s system has two primary manifestations. Two sides to the same coin. Two legs to both entice and teach its tantalizing tango to others. We can see this clearly with the original Babel…

The veil is torn, now enter in; A glory undiscovered waits.

For hearts that yearn and eyes that turn, A special power dispensates…

Now that we have a general idea of what Babylon is in the abstract, it’s time to build out a more practical understanding of its system. My goal in this post is to expose the root of this insidious weed so that in future posts we can start to see how it actually impacts our lives under the surface.

“Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great…come out of her, my people, so that you will not participate in her sins and receive of her plagues.” Heavy words for sure, but what do they mean? What is Babylon? Does this warning apply to us, in this day and age? If so, how should we respond?
