Promises kept. Boundaries broken. On Jackie Robinson Day we remember a man whose importance transcended baseball.

For our family, we will never forget a day spent with Jackieโ€™s daughter, Sharon, after Ethan won MLBโ€™s Jackie Robinson essay contest in 4th grade.

Sharon Robinson (L) and my son Ethan (R) wearing a Brooklyn Dodgers cap are smiling together indoors, with a woman in the background and a sign partially visible on the wall.

The #OldGal manages a tie today. I think she feels pretty good about it.

The sitting President of the United States posted this picture. He claimed today in public statements that it is him as a doctor supporting the Red Cross. He said only the media could come up with the idea that this was him as Christ.

Mr President, that sir is a lie. It is evident to any and all what this is. You are mocking the risen Christ. To claim otherwise, is nothing more than cheap gaslighting.

My fellow Christians, if his call for the commission of war crimes didnโ€™t sway you. If his call for genocide didnโ€™t sway you. If his dehumanizing behavior and rhetoric over the last decade hasnโ€™t swayed you.

Perhaps, the open mocking of Christ during the season of Easter will move you.

The man is deceitful, unrepentant, and utterly abhorrent. He openly mocks our shared faith.

I am studying and preaching Amos and Revelation right now. There are parallels beyond parallels in both texts that ought to concern the follower of Jesus who aligns themself with one such as this.

The #OldGal came up just short today, like the Red Wings and their playoff chances.

“A good reputation is acquired by many actions; and can be lost by one. Be upon your guard, therefore, against those weaknesses which may risk it. Nothing can be more unjust than to judge a person by one single action; but the world is seldom just.” - Philip Dormer Stanhope

I begin preaching Amos Sunday! The trepidation is real. This is not going to be a lighthearted or easy series to preach. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ
