What if Christians have also become mediocre?

Matilde Latorre, writing for Religión en Libertad, suggests that Christians may be succumbing to mediocrity by prioritizing social adaptation over their convictions. Drawing on Alain Deneault's book Mediocracia, Latorre observes that society often rewards those who adapt most effectively to existing structures.

Latorre notes that individuals can learn to meet social expectations and gain respect while gradually abandoning their core values. This process involves choosing which opinions to withhold and which conversations to avoid to protect one's social or professional standing. Eventually, this pattern of adaptation can become a normalized way of life rather than a conscious sacrifice.
