Correction on Marshall Library story

MARSHALL – In the Dec. 5 Pathway, a story concerning sexually explicit materials at Marshall’s Public Library, it was reported that the library hosted a Pagan Pride Festival in 2005. The library only allowed a flyer advertising the festival to be placed on its bulletin board. The library was not connected to the festival. The Pathway is glad to set the record straight.

Ethics

Cultivating wisdom in a post-Christian culture

Harrison Lang

As American Christians in the 21st century, we have already fought many battles over political and cultural issues in the first quarter of this century. These battles have borne real fruit for the cause of Christ and the common good—whether the overturning of Roe v. Wade or the ongoing protection of religious liberty. Contrary to the doom some people have predicted, our nation has seen significant progress. That said, Christians must still engage the public square with confidence and discernment in Christ.
