Weekly Devotion: Can A Pastor SAY That?
Do I annoy you? That’s fair.
In the last couple of years I’ve become quite vocal about the state of things. My social media posts are blunt. Ask me and I’ll tell you:
I have some SERIOUS issues with the current leadership of our government.
The focus of my fury is a prevailing ideology that feels downright “wicked”. Even evil. I am very outspoken about the dangers of policies of power over empathy, fear over mercy, and money over care. Things like defunding food banks or withholding disaster relief, or vilifying people legally seeking citizenship. And so much more.
I can’t list all my reasons for using the “e-word”, but I don’t use it lightly. I find myself at a time in our world where I can’t NOT holler in defiance.
I have to. It’s my job.
