The Courage Christ Calls Us To



This is a short video of the 2010 public high school graduation of a young man I know named Truman.  He was the valedictorian of his class and, more importantly, a person of faith in Christ.  In a world where faith is taboo and Christian morality is considered the greatest evil of all, he used his graduation day speech to stand up for Christ, and for life.  The risks that he took and the ire he has no doubt received are staggering, and so I'd ask you all to pray for him.  Yet more than that, take his as an example of what we are called to.  I know that I would be hard  pressed to match his courage - yet it is the very courage of the apostles and martyrs which first built the Church.  It is the courage of the Holy Spirit.  I am inspired by this - I hope you are as well.
