Politically Correct

The pressure to be “politically correct” has shaped modern life in powerful ways. In Cairns, like everywhere else, people often feel they have to walk on eggshells—afraid to speak plainly, afraid to offend, and afraid to stand for what they actually believe. While courtesy and kindness matter, political correctness has gone far beyond simple respect. It has become a cultural force that silences truth, discourages honest conversation, and elevates pleasing people above honouring God.

At Freedom Church Cairns, we believe people deserve better than that. God has called His people to speak the truth in love, not the truth watered down, twisted, or hidden. When culture insists we soften our convictions to fit in, we stand firm. Scripture doesn’t bend to popular opinion. Jesus never shaped His message to stay “acceptable” to the crowds. He spoke clearly, confidently, and compassionately—because real love tells the truth, even when it’s uncomfortable.

Political correctness often claims to protect people, but in reality it leaves many confused and fearful. It pressures individuals to deny biblical beliefs on identity, morality, sin, and salvation. It teaches society to prize feelings over truth. That only leads to uncertainty and instability. Our church offers a better foundation—a life built on the unchanging Word of God. When you know what God says, you don’t have to wonder which cultural trend to follow next.

Freedom Church Cairns is committed to raising believers who stand strong, speak honestly, and represent Christ without apology. We create a place where people are free to ask questions, wrestle with big issues, and discover truth without censorship. We aren’t here to be politically correct; we’re here to be biblically faithful.

If you’re looking for a church that values integrity, clarity, and courage—while still loving people deeply—you’ll find a home with us. Contact Freedom Church Cairns on 07 4031 4130. We’re here to help you walk confidently in God’s truth in a world that desperately needs it.
