Several of my young critics have stood up for MTV and its promotion of condoms and the safe-sex message. If worldliness is what young people aspire to, he's right. But God calls us to embrace a higher standard. After all, if floating along on the cultural course of least resistance were acceptable, Jesus the Truth would have had no reason to rescue us from the worldly status quo. Truth, as found throughout Scripture, gives us a reliable set of unwavering parameters to live by.
Reality is affected by time and manipulated by the agendas of man.
The answer should be obvious. Yet for many young adults, it isn't. Let's change that. Let's give young people an eternal perspective that elevates Truth above trends. What plays in the theater of our minds will shape the habits of our hearts.
