Fake News and Christian Discernment

In a press conference yesterday, President Trump challenged the secular news media over their reporting of "fake news," chastising their unethical standards of journalism which the mainstream press abandoned long ago. As Christians how should we protect our hearts and minds against "fake news"--not just from the secular press but even from some Christian news outlets as well as from some teachers and televangelists who often twist God's Word in order to sway us from the pure truth of Scripture? Charles Spurgeon once rightly said, "Discernment is not a matter of simply telling the difference between right and wrong; rather it is telling the difference between right and almost right." Today, Pastor Randy White joins us to discuss discernment, fake news, and having the correct biblical perspective on preparing for the challenging days our nation and church face. Plus, breaking news coming out of Washington state. Writing for The Stream, Dr. Michael Brown asks if Christians will continue to be silent about these threats to our religious freedoms.
