Something very good happened on Pentecost. That is certainly true of the original Pentecost as God showered His Spirit on those assembled. It also appears this was the case this past Sunday – Pentecost Sunday – as two very good legislative goals became legislative realities.

As you are well aware, here in Minnesota the DFL is in control of both legislative branches and the governor’s office. With that “political trifecta,” they have already enacted a long list of radical progressive policies into law. However, laws can be changed in relatively easy fashion when there is a change in political control.

The points of contact / tension between the dominant culture and Christianity continue to increase in number and intensity. Recently, I was interviewed by Pastor Bryan Stecker of Trinity, Waconia for his podcast series, “On the Line,” during which we touched on many of these “points of contact.” Click here to view it.

What does it look like … what does it feel like to be pushed to the margins of society? Well, of course, for Christians, things have been moving in this direction for quite a few years now, but it appears that this may become a much more felt reality for all of us in the near future.
