activist.

ACTIVIST: Someone who acts intentionally to bring about change. Usually in direct oposition to one side of an argument.

Ever notice that whenever a big event of change happens in society there are always nearby picketers ready to protest? We fight against abortion. We fight for the sanctity of marriage. We fight for the whales. Some fight for the animals while I fight for the right to eat meat :) Regardless of what we fight for, we all have something we believe in so passionately that we jump at the opportunity to defend our position.

The bible reminds us that our faith is a fight and we cannot give up! Every day we wake up we are in a battle against our flesh to do what’s right. Everytime you step into your school you walk into a fight. 

During February we’ll be talking about what it means to fight for what we believe in, and be activists of love in a hurting world. So don’t miss FlipSide this month or I might have to fight you.
