And leave immediately:
Long-time reader, first-time emailing. Have never even commented before, but visit your site 3-4 / day.
Long-time member of an LCMS church where I’ve taught Sunday School and Confirmation classes for the past 6 years. Primarily to ensure Churchianity would not be taught to our middle-schoolers.
Unfortunately, during the sermon this last Sunday, our relatively new pastor (37 y/o white) decided to spend ~85{574700e7d57f0a5242f51645fa25e9fe0fd372296e9a798489edc6652e3f512a} of the sermon time reading this notice from the Black Clergy Caucus regarding the death of George Floyd and the ensuing unrest. It is a short read, but awful.
I immediately decided to leave this church and my post as Christian Education volunteer.
If you’re not in a position to kick out the converged and the Churchian, leave. Don’t sit through sermons from the Pharisees and the Prometheans, or allow your children to be indoctrinated by the Synagogue of Satan.
No church that preaches against “racism” or about how Black Lives Matter can be considered a genuine Christian church.
