Pastor Story Hour

The unholy trinity of the world, the flesh, and the devil hate when Christians bring the Gospel into the public square.

Written by Kendall Lankford | Wednesday, January 11, 2023

Now is the time for the church to wake up. To speak the truth in love, which most definitely requires speaking. It is time to stand for truth so that this nation does not continue to fall into ranker and danker error. And, now is the time for us to boldly herald the truth of God, even if it conflicts with what the societal elites are shoving down our throats.

 

Drag Queen Story World

Just a few years ago, in the LGBTQ stronghold of San Francisco, Drag Queen Story Hour was unleashed upon the world. Adult perverts with a penchant for sexualizing children dawned their demonic costumes and infiltrated one public library after another. Within a few weeks, and continuing on in the years ahead, an unholy movement was spawned that would captivate the country. Today, in libraries all across this nation, the mentally disturbed and morally degenerate continue unabated, mustering all the energy they can spare to bring our kids into their world of seedy shadows and dank darkness.

Enough is enough!

We Need to Stop Being Turtles

When I was deployed to the National Training Center in Death Valley, California, one of our pre-mission briefings was about a local indigenous turtle. Apparently, whenever the poor beast felt frightened, it would hide in its shell, which seemed like a fairly normal thing for a turtle to do. Yet, if a predator persisted, picking up or jostling the frightened testudines, it would do the unthinkable and urinate in its shell, drowning itself in its own waste fluids. Apparently, you really could scare the pee out of this turtle, and that would inevitably kill this creature.

Knowing this was extremely important to the US Army, because this particular turtle was on the endangered species list and came with a hefty price tag. The last thing Uncle Sam wanted one of his boys doing is accidentally suiciding a poor turtle with a peculiar defense mechanism. This, unfortunately, is what many in the church and Christians in the United States have become.

Instead of rising to the challenge of our day like lions, becoming salt in a decaying culture, and light in the midst of darkness, far too many have ran back into their shells. Is it any wonder we look like we’ve wet ourselves and the church appears like it is dying? We have adopted the cultural strategy of a Death Valley turtle!

Instead of continuing such a miserable and failed approach, I believe it is time for us to be honest about who we are. We do not support the perversion of our children. We wont stand idly by while perverts in the line of Kinney continue to perform disgusting social experiments on our children. Enough is enough!

Now is the time for the church to wake up. To speak the truth in love, which most definitely requires speaking. It is time to stand for truth so that this nation does not continue to fall into ranker and danker error. And, now is the time for us to boldly herald the truth of God, even if it conflicts with what the societal elites are shoving down our throats.

This gets us to Pastor Story Hour…
