I'm thinking to myself, okay, yeah, 80 plus percent, if it's a predominantly white evangelical church, likely 80 some percent of the people in my church supported Donald Trump to varying degrees of allegiance, right?
podcast-host
Some held their nose and voted, others are full-throated MAGA people perhaps.
podcast-host
But if I'm the pastor of that church, statistically speaking,
podcast-host
I probably have never uttered the name of Donald Trump except maybe to pray for the president as I would regardless of who the president might be.
podcast-host
I have probably never preached a political sermon.
podcast-host
I have never been partisan in my teaching of scripture or in my – I've never handed out voter guides in my church.
podcast-host
Most evangelical churches and church leaders generally stay away from this stuff.
podcast-host

podcast-host

podcast-host
What's that guy's name?
podcast-host
I don't know.

podcast-host
But the perception is my church is still Trumpy and partisan and the people I want to reach aren't going to come in.
podcast-host
And it's not because of something I did.
podcast-host
It's because the broader media has presented my church or my people in a way which is so negative, maybe rooted in truth, but negative that doesn't reflect what I'm actually trying to do here.
podcast-host
What do you say to that pastor?
podcast-host
like, I didn't cause this mess.
podcast-host
Why am I being punished for it?
podcast-host
so- Another way of saying it, hold on, if I can interrupt, is they're not committing, they're not sins of commission, they're sins of omission.
