Since the election of Sunkist Hitler, it seems folks are losing their collective minds. What is even more disturbing are the number of people being passive and trying to get along, and with the let's just accept that he is president, mentality. Meanwhile, Sunkist Hitler is filling his cabinet with white nationalists, people unqualified for their positions, banning thousands of Muslims from this country, ICE are conducting raids in six states, and North Korea and China are ready to nuke us, but yes, let's just getting along with the 70 year old toddler.
But the most distressing thing is the silence and passiveness of the church. Last week, Tina Campbell, one half of the gospel group Mary Mary wrote a love letter to Trump, about how she was praying for him and how Christians need to practice love, yada, yada. This is the same Tina, who smashed her husband's vintage car after he cheated on her....I wonder where was this loving spirit then?
Then there is Donnie McClurkin who on yesterday posted that we need to support Sunkist Hitler and stop resisting..what Donnie? Oh, like you are resisting coming out of the closet sir? (Okay, that was a low blow, but Jesus loves the truth!).
When I think of the church and what it should look like in these perilous times, I think of Dr. Rev. William Barber, Raleigh minister, President of the NC branch of the NAACP, and organizer and founder of Moral Mondays. His leadership, voice, and refusal to remain status quo, have been a beacon of hope. More church leaders and anyone who calls themselves Christians, need to follow his lead.
Prayer is great and life affirming, but Jesus calls us to be doers and putting faith into action. Because while you are praying, Sunkist Hitler, is trying to take us back to the 1950's, and I for one, believe that the God, who I serve, wants a more abundant, prosperous life for me! Hallelujah somebody!
Until next time......
