Living in the Shadow of June 26


The Supreme Court’s decision on marriage was not a surprise, but it was wrong on a multitude of levels. I do not need to repeat those here. There are many other blogs that have offered excellent wisdom since last week. I do not wish to be redundant.

My question to you (and myself) is: How will we now live come June 29?

If the answer is radically different than how we lived on June 25, then we have a problem.

Oh, we will have to make new decisions, consider new challenges, and be faced with new troubles. The evils of a fallen world have always been with us and always will; they did not begin on June 29. However, the fallout from June 29 will bring new variations on themes that have existed for thousands of years.

As sojourners (1 Peter 2:11) who happen to be blessed to have residency in the greatest country in the world (for my U. S. readers), if we fundamentally shifted our way of thought and life on June 29, then that is more troubling than the Supreme Court’s terrible decision.
