The Trivium Institute for Leader Development

The statement “all truth is relative” cannot be true for it must include or exclude itself. If it includes itself then it renders itself relative; if it excludes itself it establishes a moral absolute rendering it untrue.

Maybe it's better to say, truth is relational in that it relates to other things, persons, concepts, etc. If it is relational, then maybe that is why Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.

Truth is a Person and all truth is then relative to that Person and His name is Jesus!

“Christians were never meant to be normal. We’ve always been holy troublemakers, we’ve always been creators of uncertainty, agents of dimension that’s incompatible with the status quo; we do not accept the world as it is, but we insist on the world becoming the way that God wants it to be. And the Kingdom of God is different from the patterns of this world.” ~ Jacques Ellul

May the Church rise up in the fullness of His love and live healing reconciliation and loving justice that our land and world so desperately needs.

“The word “discipline” in our current cultural context can be a non-starter. To practice discipline, to be conformed to something that isn’t wholly natural to one's own personal preferences, can be seen as, at best misguided, and at worse oppressive. But Biblical discipline, the kind that the Triune God of the Bible has called us into, is actually the antithesis to these assumptions: it is guided rightly by God in the Spirit, and it is not oppressive but the path to true freedom.” - a profound insight from Caleb Baker, Trivium Student, from his final paper for Spiritual Formation 1 (SF101)
