๐งตMy heart is truly heavy right now in regards to a large swath of the Church in this nation. You may not like hearing me talk about it so much, but it is the greatest crisis of the faith I've seen in my lifetime. We have always fallen short in areas, no doubt. But what...
we're seeing now goes far beyond falling short and having human failings. This is a willful, determined grasp at power and control in the name of God. Out of fear or anger or selfishness-or maybe even good intentions to uphold God's honor that have morphed into something else...

over to fools and charlatans, thereby subjecting the country and the world to the whims of an aspiring tyrant and his cadre of sycophants. I continue to pray for eyes to be opened, hearts to be broken, and repentance to be embraced. In the meantime, I will continue to call on...
my spiritual family to take responsibility for the inevitable effects of these choices and humbly seek to learn, change, and aspire to what we are called to: to live justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God.
