Anti-Trump Worship Leader Writes Song to Rebuke Evangelical Trump Supporters

Daniel Dietrich, the worship pastor at South Bend City Church, Indiana, has penned a “hymn” rebuking the 81% of white evangelical Christians who voted for Trump.

The lyrics of the song accuse the evangelicals of “putting kids in cages, ripping mothers from their babies” and “weaponiz[ing] religion.”

“There’s so much work to do to combat white supremacy, homophobia, transphobia, sexism — all the ways in which people are treated as less than the children of God that they are,” Dietrich told Religion News Service.

Despite being praised by many evangelicals from the left the hymn has not been embraced by all: “Deitrich’s words are not elevating or edifying; they are divisive,” Goins-Phillips, of Faithwire, writes. “Our worship and discipleship should be challenging, but it should be challenging in ways that call us back to Scripture, not to our anger at one another.”

Anderson Cooper’s Daytime Talk Show Canceled After Only 2 Seasons

Telepictures, an arm of Warner Bros. studio, released the news on Monday that Anderson Cooper’s daytime talk show “Anderson Live” will not be renewed at the end of the second season.

Poor ratings are why the show will not continue as reported by the New York Times.

Warner Bros. in its statement regarding Anderson Cooper’s show… “We are extremely proud of Anderson and the show that he and the entire production team have produced… While we made significant changes to the format, set and produced it live in its second season, the series will not be coming back for a third season in a marketplace that has become increasingly difficult to break through.”

Cooper’s Twitter account was silent.

Anderson Cooper has been known to mock or discredit evangelicals such as Cindy Jacobs and Bob Larson
