'Christians are bold': Viral evangelist Bevelyn Beatty calls modern church to action against leftist culture
It is no secret the American church now faces a crisis of complacency.
Whether out of genuine respect for the beliefs and values of others or simple unwillingness to make waves and face social discomfort, many Christians across the country have given up the practice of openly preaching truth, rapidly conforming to progressive social convention instead.
According to a 2018 study from nonprofit spiritual research firm The Barna Group, the share of Christians who see evangelism as a personal responsibility and key spiritual discipline has dropped 25 percentage points since 1993.
On Friday, viral evangelist Bevelyn Beatty issued a stern wake-up call to the modern American church, urging its members to buck the trend and stop "virtue signaling" to avoid conflict over meaningful cultural issues.
It's time for believers to actively "terrorize the Devil," Beatty told The Western Journal -- and to do so, they need to lean on the example of history's most controversial, counter-cultural figure: Jesus Christ.
