Expecting the Blind to See

Have you ever seen or heard a non-Christian speaking about God or the Bible, perverting the message and twisting the words in a way to make it seem ignorant, bigoted and completely unbelievable? Is it a Facebook post where someone is arguing that Christians are hateful and unloving based on our biblical worldview? How do you feel when you see that? How do you react to it? Does it make you mad? Do you lash out and put them down for their ignorant point of view? Do you point out their lack of understanding? Do you jump into attack mode or do you remain silent and move on?

Show Me The Money, Kaepernick!

Well, I thought I had put everything that I had to say into “Star Spangled Kaepernick,” but as it turns out, I’m not done with the subject. There seems to be a popular school of thought that Kaepernick needs to “put his money where his mouth is.” For the record, he did announce that he was donating a million dollars to charities that aid communities in need, but just the same, this sentiment confuses and, quite honestly, upsets me a little as well.
