The Press Secretary
IllustrationAnalogy★★★★THE PRESS secretary of the White House has one job—to
speak on behalf of the head of state, represented in the White
House by the president. What he thinks is irrelevant. Whether
he agrees with the president is irrelevant. His job is to speak on
behalf of the president. Period. Then, he should be ready and
willing to take questions. “Be prepared to give an answer to
everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that
you have” (1 Peter 3:15).
The point
A press secretary speaks only on behalf of the president regardless of personal views; Christians similarly should be ready to give an answer for the hope they have in Christ.
