This is a difficult time to be a Christian in America. The sad reality is that tens of millions of our fellow Christians have flocked to a false messiah preaching a gospel of hatred and scapegoating.
Of course, scripture and church history are full of stories of how God's people have become fearful and turned to false idols. God never abandoned them, and God will not abandon us now.
But following Jesus has never been easy, and in President Trump's America it will require even greater courage. Some among us, and some of our neighbors, may soon find their safety under particular threat - especially Muslims, Latinos, immigrants, and the poor.
We don't know exactly what a Trump administration will bring. But each of us must now commit, prayerfully and intentionally, to act.
