Welcome to Awaken2024.com, the website for Encourage in Truth ministries where you will find resources that will help you gain an understanding of the spiritual realm from a biblical worldview. Much of the content for this website and many of the links you will find throughout it were sourced from our writings and our first published book entitled:
The Great American Backslide and Our Silent Partnership with Darkness
Living in Opposition to Evil’s Influence
If you want to understand the unseen, spiritual influences impacting this fallen world, we encourage you to pick up a copy of our book via the link below. What this writing and teaching ministry is attempting to address involves a complex and often avoided topic. Our ministry focus is to address the spiritual hard truths and the associated hard questions, like: Will a future generation many decades from now be classifying the USA of 2030 as a backwards culture that bought into, or conversely, resisted the global direction of a world under various powers and authorities that we do not currently understand? Is it a good idea or bad idea for America to be transformed by a global society’s beliefs, practices, and moral values?
The challenge in answering these questions depends upon perspective, but more importantly, on whether or not we can recognize societal evil. It is a given that dominant societies will eventually fail because they are run by fallible humans. We all falter to varying levels individually as far as morality is concerned. But there’s an indicator of a much bigger problem in the observation of a widespread societal backslide. America’s backslide demonstrates a culture completely oblivious to the possibility of evil influences upon the paths that we are taking as a society in general. How is it that a society can reach the point of becoming evil without even understanding that it is happening? The challenge questions I sought to answer in the book are:
- How does the influence of evil induce cultural paradigm shifts aimed to ultimately separate us from God and cause further division and destruction in the United States of America?
- How does evil leverage our emotions and our sinful human nature to manipulate subtle and incremental compromises of truth?
- How does pure evil reach a critical mass as far as societal influence? Stated similarly, how does evil sustain itself and create ever-increasing evil?
- And, most importantly, how can we live in opposition to evil influences upon our world?
There are a series of links underneath the images found below that will bring you to a number of resources including (in the order shown): a link to the book’s website and a short introductory video to the book (video link found below cover page shown); how to contact us to talk and/or schedule an engaging presentation on the content in the book (two sample slide decks are available); and a link to our Encourage in Truth blog:
The additional links below will help you understand, expose and counter the schemes and tactics of the god of Confusion. On the left you will find a slide deck showing how the god of Confusion normalizes the cancel culture paradigm in order to enhance distraction, dysfunction, and dissension. Another scheme is targeted toward destroying the eternal standards of God in order to keep us in an endless incremental cycle of increasing depravity. Both represent efforts contributing toward severe tribalism, confusion, and division. The slide deck link under the image on the right provides a presentation addressing ways to counter these evil schemes and tools. Group presentations or sermons on each of these topics are available to your church team, Bible believing professional or fraternal organization, or entire congregation at no cost in select Northern Virginia counties. Just go to our Contact Us page for more details.
