Sanity as Insurrection was the title of the final session of the 2019 Illinois Family Institute Worldview Conference on the “trans” ideology. In this presentation, Pastor Doug Wilson stressed the importance of asking sane questions, — queries that strike at the heart of the matter, when we engage in debate with our adversaries because “deliberate and premeditated sanity is a challenge to the powers that be.”
Is theocracy unavoidable? Can morality ever be just personal and private? Can Christian parents send their kids to public schools? Pastor Doug details seven theological/intellectual life hacks–non-negotiables regarding orthodox theology, faith, and truth–that illuminate what’s going on in the world around us.
We cannot recommend this video highly enough to you, as he tackles these and other pertinent questions while urging us to maintain our sanity to fight this world of absurdity.
In giving us these seven “life hacks” to help us interpret the madness swirling around us, Pastor Doug exposes many Leftist tactics along the way—from the evisceration of the theological foundation for human rights to manipulation of grammatical principles. And he reminds us to always keep asking the two questions that everyone learned on the kindergarten playground: “Why?” and “Who says?” Because we acknowledge that God rules from heaven, we can truly give an answer.
Please — share this with your friends and church leaders, or better yet, invite them over to watch and discuss it together. You will be edified, enlightened, emboldened, and inspired.
Doug Wilson is the pastor of Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho. He is also an author, speaker, and Senior Fellow of Theology at New Saint Andrews College in Moscow.
