Session 4: Healing Our Communities from the Damage of Misinformation and Conspiracies
Our motivation in attempting to heal our communities from the threat of conspiracism and misinformation must not come from a holier-than-thou mindset, but rather a place of legitimate concern for civic well-being and unity of the body of Christ. We ought to confront misinformation and conspiracy theories not for the satisfaction of proving something or someone wrong, but out of desire to seek truth regardless of the political or cultural consequences. We believe that while the fall has made humanity susceptible to lies and falsehoods, God is actively renewing and restoring the minds of his people through the death and resurrection of Jesus. As ambassadors of Christ, the people of God are divinely empowered to stand for truth and reject falsehood and division in our churches and communities as we proclaim the Gospel!
