In the face of worldly chaos, Christians should flourish.

Christian author and speaker Lisa Bevere isn’t dismissing the complexities and difficulties of this current cultural moment. Rather, during a recent appearance on CBN’s “Faith vs. Culture,” the “Fight for Female” author said believers should set themselves apart from the disorder of this “Luciferian” age.

“In chaos, the opposite force is order,” she said. “In chaos, when everything is destructive, the opposite force is flourishing. So how we actually combat something in the Spirit is we fight by flourishing. I believe, first and foremost, we renounce any alliance or agreement we’ve had with [chaos], then we operate in the opposite Spirit.”

“So, if the family is being torn down by culture, we build the family,” Bevere continued. “If the educational system is indoctrination, we go into the educational system and we find out how to improve that.”

The 64-year-old minister warned Christians against withdrawing completely from the mainstream world. There is “danger,” she explained,” in “hiding rather than equipping.” She added, “We want to shelter, not imprison.”

Part of that “equipping” is understanding Scripture and knowing how to apply the Bible to everyday life. Bevere encouraged pastors to speak into the hot-button issues punctuating modern culture, like sexuality, justice, ethnicity, abortion and the family structure.

“I do think pastors have been pushed into corners, where they’re told, ‘Hey, you can’t speak about this,’” she observed. “That’s a lie; Jesus spoke about every single thing and so, if you’re a minister, you should have a voice in every single area — not be relegated to just Sunday sermons.”

Some of the chaos of the world is creeping into the church, too.

A YouGov survey from late 2022 found the vast majority of Americans (87%) subscribe to at least one belief loosely categorized as a tenet of “new-age spiritualism,” such as karma, hypnosis, the existence of extraterrestrials, or the “law of attraction,” more commonly known as “manifesting.”
