How Should Christians Respond to Pride Month?
Compiled & Edited by iBelieve Staff
EditorialEvery June, Pride Month raises questions for Christians: How do we respond in a way thatâs faithful to Godâs Wordâbut still reflects His heart? Should we speak up? Stay quiet? Engage cultureâor separate from it? In this reflective devotional, we explore how to respond to Pride Month as Christians with both biblical conviction and Christlike compassionânever compromising truth, and never withholding grace. Lord, In a world of shifting values and loud opinions, help me anchor my response in You. As Pride Month unfolds around me, give me wisdom to respond as a Christianâwith truth, yes, but also with humility, patience, and love. Let me never weaponize Your Word, but also never water it down. Help me see people as You doânot as issues or labels, but as souls made in Your image. Guard my heart from fear, pride, or silence born of convenience. Empower me to speak the truth in loveânot just with my words, but with my life. And remind me that conviction without compassion becomes cold religion, but compassion without truth becomes empty sentiment. Make me bold, gentle, faithful, and graciousâlike Jesus. In Your holy name, Amen.
