The Mission And Goals For Conservative Truth

April 22, 2024


Paul Hayden - 8/10/2023 

I have some big thoughts and dreams for Conservative Truth. Somehow I believe it is good to have big dreams or grandiose aspirations. As long as they are grounded in reality, and not harmful to others – let us dream big! Let me share some thoughts of mine for Conservative Truth, and you can share in them however you wish. Please let me know what YOU think! Get in touch with me, through the comments or contact me directly, and let me know what you think!


Mission Statement for Conservative Truth

Truth can stand up to any questioning, any testing, and all challenges that might be brought to it. Truth stands on its own in an atmosphere of honesty. Truth is the raw existence of that which is real. 

Truth is the basis of reality – truth is reality. 

Conservative Truth exists primarily for Truth. This should be our common ground, the best foundation, and related to everything concerning life itself. To that end, we will strive to bring relevant thoughts into sharp focus with clear definitions. We hope to provide insight and commentary into various aspects of life, culture, community, and faith, helping offer solutions for life's problems and issues, as well as inspiration for the common good. Our desire is to work together with others to seek and know the truth, and to make life better for all. 

Life is an adventure, and while it is fun and exciting and stimulating, it also brings problems. A big part of life is identifying and seeking solutions to life’s problems! All too often, we people bring these difficulties onto ourselves, and often our solutions create even more problems than before. 

One observed trait of politics and government is that government often creates problems and then proposes to solve those problems with even more government. It is a shame when the very people whom we should most be able to trust turn out to be those we can trust the least! But this is not only a political problem! From government to education, business, medicine, journalism, and even church leadership and other important professions, there is an increasingly alarming decline of trustworthiness and escalation of moral corruption going on.

The foundation for our understanding of Truth is boldly Christian, based solidly on Biblical faith and beliefs. The world is made up of matter and energy. Scientists work fervently trying to understand the universe, how it works, and how life came about. So far, they are completely shut out for any explanation of where everything came from, where and when it started, and deepest of all, how life started and what it means. Those of us who believe in God find peace in the faith that God created everything, and He gives us the purpose for living, which is Love. Above all that we can see and touch and hear, there is Spirit. 

Conservative Truth aspires to be inspirational, uplifting, and educational, drawing people into the sustaining wholesome lifestyle that is based on TRUTH! I hope this website can be a repository of truth, honesty, hope, and comfort, a refuge in this world so filled with lies, distrust, deceit, cynicism, sarcasm, and endless insufferable advertising. We can be part of a larger network of awareness and understanding, a haven on the Internet apart from the noise, the distractions, and the barrage of waste that lures us in and eats away our lives.

You shall know the Truth, and the Truth shall set you free. (Jesus, John 8.32)

“…but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ…” (Paul, to the Ephesians 4.15)


I will be working toward refining these thoughts into a more concise single paragraph or so, if possible, of what I see as a workable mission statement for this website. Again, I would cherish any thoughts that anyone might wish to share with me. Thank you - Paul Hayden

Some more thoughts…

Goals of CT

  • To help one another see and understand the truth. Pragmatic, useful, search for the truth. No fear of seeking, acknowledging, and striving for that which is good, right, and true, and opposing that which is bad, evil, harmful, and deceitful.
  • We need hope and understanding of THE TRUTH to make this world a better place for everyone, with wisdom and understanding that is universally needed and useful. We are here, right now, at a point in history, and we believe that we can and must make a difference in our country and the world; we have problems that need to be addressed, discussed, and solved.
  • Everywhere you turn somebody is trying to trick you, or talk you into something, or sell you something, or cheat you out of something, or just plain waste your time with empty mindless entertainment.
  • Not a fad or trend, or a viral fifteen minutes of fame.
  • Not in competition with anything.
  • No shiny advertising, no get-rich-quick scheme, no goal of super prosperity or universal popularity.
  • No need for frills and decorations, smoke and mirrors, confetti cannons, etc.

Content Ideas For Conservative Truth

Here are some ideas I have for content for this website that could include any of the following:

  • articles – commentary, current events, conservatism, politics, religion.
  • book reviews - the best books of true conservatism, the best books for life.
  • interviews - with great conservative thinkers.
  • links with other conservative sites.
  • ties with conservative leaders in our country, state or national.
  • FOCUS on important matters of life – not getting caught up with peripherals, irrelevant details, etc.
  • anything to further that which Conservative Truth stands for!
  • possibly a networking site for mentors and “mentees.” Put together people who can help pass on wisdom and life’s insights to younger people who desperately need those “elders” who care about them.

Hey, Barnacle Bill - thank you for the kind words. Feedback is rare, and good, positive feedback even more so. I endeavor to be part of the solution - for making the world better. Yes, we need to reach the youth. Keep on, friend! Please keep reading, and share with others who might enjoy the articles as well as our Founding resources! Blessings, Paul Hayden

Hi Paul, thank you for what you do, I love reading Conservative Truth! The world needs the information that you publish, especially young people. We have a lot of minds to open up to what's really happening in our country and the world. I can't help but think of the frog in the pot of slowly heating water! I was wondering if there is a way to exemplify the biased media coverage of the majority of news networks and the general hypocrisy of the news media. I hear about it on talk radio, but talk radio is "preaching to the choir". There's got to be a way to show people who believe everything they hear on most of the "Democrat" networks that it's totally biased. Well, you asked, so that's my 2 cents. Thank you again, Barnacle Bill

Hi, Jack - I tried contacting you directly, but the email you submitted did not work. Thank you for your participation. Interesting what you say. In much of the world today, we are up against 10-40 word memes, and very short-attention-span people. I find even for myself, an article that takes more than about 4-5 minutes to read can lose me, unless it is a topic of utmost importance or really grabs me. I agree, and we actually allow a reasonable increase in the number of words per article. 750 is quite short, in some ways. But...it does help those who might get extremely wordy, like myself included, to get in, punch it hard, and get out. A good pastor I knew once said that you should always leave the hearers wanting more, rather than droning on and on. Say it quick and say it well. Curious if you write much or at all. We welcome articles on any pertinent topics, if you would care to submit anything. Blessings! Paul Hayden - Publisher

Minimum word limit for article submissions is too low. Except for certain writers like Michael Bresciani, whose articles have a lot of POWER, the other writers seem to lack authority.
