There are certain ways that the church (even the institution of the church) should speak openly about ethics in the market place of ideas. Here are seven areas where we must speak the ethics of the Kingdom: 1. The existence and sovereignty of God
2. The sanctity of life
3. The inviolability of truth
4. Religious freedom for Christians
5. The need to defend the family
6. A preference for the poor and mistreated
7. Care for creation

Key Text: Matthew 5:14-16
