There’s a very good reason Dr. Erwin Lutzer, Pastor Emeritus of The Moody Church, refuses to be silenced. He does not abide by the “woke” culture that is spreading across America because it goes against the higher power that Dr. Lutzer holds dear. He is beholden to God and therefore refuses to be silenced because the teachings of the Bible tell us to be bold with our faith.
With his latest book, We Will Not Be Silenced: Responding with Courage to Our Culture’s Assault on Christianity, his penchant for publishing about the most timely topics is in full display. It was written before many Christians realized what we’ve learned very clearly in the past few months, that our voices are being suppressed across the board. Through mainstream media, social media, and even in our real world interactions, espousing a Biblical worldview can make us targets of silencing and cancelation through the assault by Cultural Marxists.
In the latest episode of NOQ Report, Dr. Lutzer took time to sit with me virtually and discuss some of the events happening today that should concern Christians. And by “concern,” that’s not to say he believes we should fear them. We must take them into consideration in our ongoing efforts to spread the Gospel and do the righteous Will of God.
But it’s not just about getting banned on Twitter or being told to keep our faith to ourselves at work. There is a concerted attack underway against the youth of America to indoctrinate them into an anti-American and anti-Biblical worldview.
“One of the reasons that the Judeo-Christian history of the United States is being vilified is because of the fact that, as I mentioned, they want to put America on a different foundation,” he said. “Now, this is important. One of the reasons that I wrote it is so Christian parents can understand why it is that when they send their children to college and university, why do they come back hating America?”
Arguably the biggest challenge facing Christians is an internal one. We, as a church and as a nation, have grown complacent about our freedoms, particular our right to worship. This complacency prompted many to stay on the sidelines, avoid conflict, and take our eyes off of political concerns. Now, we’re seeing our lack of action is coming back to haunt us.
“Indeed, I can say with authority that for Christians, there is no longer any place to hide. I point out that Marx believed, and a man by the name of
Herbert Marcuse in the 60s taught that freedom of speech should be banned. His argument was if we give freedom of speech to the capitalists, they will always win the argument. The only way to win the argument is for the ‘oppressed’ to have freedom of speech.”
At one point in the interview, Lutzer references a quote often attributed to Winston Churchill. “An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.” There are too many “appeasers” in American society today. This translates into lukewarm political and religious adherence; Christians and conservatives often try to “appease” the left thinking they will be spared from the attacks of Cultural Marxists.
Our Judeo-Christian heritage is under direct attack as the Cultural Marxists and radical progressives attempt to quash us. This is the moment we need to stand up and follow the guidelines of the Constitution and the teachings of the Bible.
His book, We Will Not Be Silenced: Responding with Courage to Our Culture’s Assault on Christianity, is available at Christian Books, Amazon, and wherever books are sold.

COVID-19 lockdowns are taking down an independent news outlet
Nobody said running a media site would be easy. We could use some help keeping this site afloat.
Colleagues have called me the worst fundraiser ever. My skills are squarely rooted on the journalistic side of running a news outlet. Paying the bills has never been my forte, but we’ve survived. We have ads on the site that help, but since the site’s inception this has been a labor of love that otherwise doesn’t bring in the level of revenue necessary to justify it.
When I left a nice, corporate career in 2017, I did so knowing I wouldn’t make nearly as much money. But what we do at NOQ Report to deliver the truth and fight the progressive mainstream media narrative that has plagued this nation is too important for me to sacrifice it for the sake of wealth. We know we’ll never make a ton of money this way, and we’re okay with that.
Things have become harder with the coronavirus lockdowns. Both ad money and donations that have kept us afloat for a while have dropped dramatically. We thought we could weather the storm, but the resurgence of lockdowns that mainstream media and Democrats are pushing has put our prospects in jeopardy. In short, we are now in desperate need of financial assistance.
The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $17,300 to stay afloat through March when we hope the economy will be more open, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.
The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. In November, 2020, we hit 1.2 million visitors.
We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.
As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.
American Conservative Movement
Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 11,000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.
