More than 50,000 Faithful America members signed our thank you letter to Bishop Budde. But we know that no one person -- not even a bishop -- can stop the current Christian nationalist power grab on their own.
Too often the Trump administration's corrupt, hateful actions have been met with silence or even complicity from political leaders, business leaders, and spiritual leaders. Instead of helping to keep us and our loved ones safe, they've obeyed Trump out of fear or greed. But every single time we've seen genuine public resistance since Trump took office -- whether it came from one brave bishop or thousands of us making calls and pushing back -- Trump's air of inevitability lifted and another world felt possible again.
Our ability to defend ourselves, our families, and our neighbors from Trump's onslaught depends on each of us having the same kind of faithful courage that Bishop Budde demonstrated. The courage to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world, even when we feel afraid.
Turn this moment into a movement. Commit to bravely speaking out against Trump and taking bold action together as Christians in the days to come:
