BE STILL: A Christian Response to an Olympic Offense
My friend and ministry partner for the past 3 decades wrote me a message responding to my Facebook posts after the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games with the following request: “Mike, you’ve been telling us what NOT to do on Facebook, now tell us what to do”. So, Bennie, brace yourself brother, this is not for the fainthearted … Spiritually there are three guidelines: 1. Add an AND 2. WWJS 3. Mission impossible: show some respect.
I FEEL I HAVE TO SAY THIS: I apologise
I feel I have to say this: I want to issue a public apology to all people who witnessed the knee-jerk reaction of so many Christians after the opening ceremony at the Olympic Games. I want to publicly state that the Christ of the Bible was not the Christ that you witnessed on Social Media. And I will tell you three reasons why I say that.
