“All social engineering is preceded by verbal engineering,” wrote William Smith. In other words, if you want to change a culture, you must first change its language. Today, this “verbal engineering” is happening in the West with increasing rapidity and force. Powerful words, such as justice, freedom, truth, marriage, and many more, have been intentionally and radically redefined by influential people and institutions seeking to fundamentally transform Western culture. We are seeing increasing evidence that in one generation, the mainstream meaning of a word can change, with the culture-changing along with it. In this episode, we look at the power of words and language, and how we as faithful Christians need to treasure, protect, and fight for true biblical definitions if we want to see our cultures reflect the truth, goodness, and beauty of God’s eternal Kingdom.
