The “find your truth” lie, from Will Spencer (@renofman on X)
“I was in secular transpersonal psychotherapy for two years, between 2013 and 2015.
Week-by-week, I turned myself inside out on the couch, processing “trauma” with my therapist. I thought it helped.
But all therapy did was make me more comfortable with fulfilling my sinful desires. This was called “getting out of my own way.”
My therapist never said anything was right or wrong. For example, I was a young man, and he never suggested that I might find fulfillment in starting a family. No matter what I said I wanted, he encouraged me in it.
He affirmed “my truth.”
Only after I chased everything I wanted, I found out that “living my truth” was a lie. There’s nothing at the end of that path. Nothing that lasts, anyway. Just a never-ending parade of fleshly desires and then death.
Then I discovered that the Bible has the real prescription for the lives of men and women. I discovered the God who made us, and what He made us for.
I discovered the reality of sin, of objective right and wrong, of righteousness and immorality.
And it was there the whole time!
Then I looked around at my nation and my culture and saw generations of adults drowning in “their truth.” They’re being affirmed in trying to change genders, aborting babies, ending marriages, shattering families, wasting lives and money and so much time.
Adult men and women get to do whatever they want “because trauma” and “because my truth.” This destroys them, and they call it “liberation.”
I’ve seen it, because I was on that path too. So now, I no longer believe people need more of “their truth.” I know for a fact they don’t.
Instead they need The Truth. It’s the only thing that heals. And it doesn’t cost a penny.
Only pride.
