# The Water We Swim In - 1/6/2026
Most people don’t question the economic system they were born into.
Not because it’s good — but because it’s normal.
Scripture talks endlessly about idolatry, honesty, and justice.
Yet the modern monetary system — built on perpetual debt and quiet debasement — is rarely named.
Seeing the water doesn’t make you pure.
But refusing to see it guarantees blindness.

Powerful and uncomfortable to be honest but this is the truth.
I am very glad you are speaking about this.
It’s a challenge to me also
Thank you for sharing
