This June, Celebrate ‘Fidelity Month!’
This June, Celebrate ‘Fidelity Month!’
Instead of being drained by various “Pride” celebrations and festivities, use the month of June to celebrate fidelity!
From Breakpoint. If the final few weeks of May were any indication, this Juneās pride month noise will be louder and edgier than previous years. Already,Ā the controversy surrounding Targetās new line of clothing, produced in partnership with a clothing company that also produces clothing to celebrate Satanism, has dominated the nationās headlines. …

And then there is the strange saga of the L.A. Dodgers. After a rather public back and forth, the Major League Baseball team decided to platformĀ an LGBTQ organization that is known for its hyper-sexualized performances that openly blaspheme Jesus and mock Christian symbolism. …
In response, Christians must do two things. First, we can and should protest both with our voices and our pocketbooks. Dodgers players and Target shoppers will need to think through where the line of complicity is. Second, we should proclaim a better way. One of Chuck Colsonās closest colleagues and collaborators has an idea worth considering:Ā
āBy the authority vested in me by absolutely no one,ā Professor Robert George of Princeton University wrote in an email last week, āI have declared June to be āFidelity Monthāāa month dedicated to the importance of fidelity to God, spouses and families, our country, and our communities.ā …
Like when Israel would set aside days and seasons to remember and repent and recalibrate, why not choose to be intentional about making June something else: a time to remember and teach the next generation about our most important responsibilities as those made in the image of God.Ā
In this email from Professor George, the task of remembering seemed to be of particular concern:Ā
You may have read about the rather disturbingĀ recent WSJ pollĀ indicating a precipitous decline in our fellow Americansā belief in the importance of such values as patriotism, religion, family, and communityāthe values that used to unite Americans despite our many differences.Ā
āThere are a million things we can and should do to restore the faith of our people,ā George continued, ābut I would like you to join in one small one.ā Fidelity Month will launch with a webinar that is open to the public,Ā tomorrow, June 1, at 2 p.m. EST. … Learn more and register for the webinar at www.fidelitymonth.com.Ā Ā
Also on the website, you can find the Fidelity Month symbol, a specially designed wreath …

Mr. George,
Thank you so much for your POSITIVE (Christ-like) response and example for others to see the goodness of our Savior. Recently i had been contemplating callings/assignments and was pondering whether we were thinking too much about the big things, rather than the small significant things. The scriptures that came to mind are from I Thessalonians and i believe our macro-assignments can be found in these verses which line up well with your proposed “Fidelity Month.”
I Thessalonians 5:4 But you are not in [given up to the power of] darkness, brethren, for that day to overtake you by surprise like a thief.
5 For you are all sons of light and sons of the day; we do not belong either to the night or to darkness.
6 Accordingly then, let us not sleep, as the rest do, but let us keep wide awake (alert, watchful, cautious, and on our guard) and let us be sober (calm, collected, and circumspect).
7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who are drunk, get drunk at night.
8 But we belong to the day; therefore, let us be sober and put on the breastplate (corslet) of faith and love and for a helmet the hope of salvation.
9 For God has not appointed us to [incur His] wrath [He did not select us to condemn us], but [that we might] obtain [His] salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah)
10 Who died for us so that whether we are still alive or are dead [at Christās appearing], we might live together with Him and share His life.
11 Therefore encourage (admonish, exhort) one another and edify (strengthen and build up) one another, just as you are doing.
12 Now also we beseech you, brethren, get to know those who labor among you [recognize them for what they are, acknowledge and appreciate and respect them all]āyour leaders who are over you in the Lord and those who warn and kindly reprove and exhort you.
13 And hold them in very high and most affectionate esteem in [intelligent and sympathetic] appreciation of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.
14 And we earnestly beseech you, brethren, admonish (warn and seriously advise) those who are out of line [the loafers, the disorderly, and the unruly]; encourage the timid and fainthearted, help and give your support to the weak souls, [and] be very patient with everybody [always keeping your temper].
15 See that none of you repays another with evil for evil, but always aim to show kindness and seek to do good to one another and to everybody.
16 Be happy [in your faith] and rejoice and be glad-hearted continually (always);
17 Be unceasing in prayer [praying perseveringly];
18 Thank [God] in everything [no matter what the circumstances may be, be thankful and give thanks], for this is the will of God for you [who are] in Christ Jesus [the Revealer and Mediator of that will].
19 Do not quench (suppress or subdue) the [Holy] Spirit;
20 Do not spurn the gifts and utterances of the prophets [do not depreciate prophetic revelations nor despise inspired instruction or exhortation or warning].
21 But test and prove all things [until you can recognize] what is good; [to that] hold fast.
22 Abstain from evil [shrink from it and keep aloof from it] in whatever form or whatever kind it may be.
23 And may the God of peace Himself sanctify you through and through [separate you from profane things, make you pure and wholly consecrated to God]; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved sound and complete [and found] blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah).
24 Faithful is He Who is calling you [to Himself] and utterly trustworthy, and He will also do it [fulfill His call by hallowing and keeping you].
AMEN!
