The Shortcut Christians Take When Defending Tradition

Many Christians deeply value tradition, and for good reason. But sometimes, without realizing it, tradition can quietly become a mental shortcut that stops us from asking whether something is actually true. In this video, I explore how appealing to history, longevity, and “what Christians have always believed” can shift from being a helpful guide to an unexamined conclusion. This isn’t an attack on tradition or church history, it’s a diagnostic look at how Christian thinking can subtly shut down when age replaces evaluation. 💰 DONATE & SUPPORT: https://givebutter.com/canonandcreed Canon & Creed is a channel for Christians who want to: ✅ Understand historic confessional Protestantism ✅ Defend the faith with clarity, conviction, and depth ✅ Cut through modern myths, pop theology, and bad history 🔔 Subscribe & turn on notifications so you don’t miss what’s next Canon & Creed Theme Song: CSM-LM Docking by Adam Young © All Credit & Rights
