Political divide in Churches brings calls for unity
Unmute
(MERCER COUNTY) - Many people call it a divide. I don t know how you can divide something that s never been unified. I don t think we ve ever been unified, Pastor Frederick M. Brown of the Faith Center Church in Bluefield, West Virginia said.
Brown is sharing his reaction to another local pastor attending the Trump rally in Washington that ended in riot and insurrection in January. I don t want to judge Pastor Bradford s heart. As I have been very clear, I don t know him that well, I have spoken with him, and told him he s my brother. I love you as a brother in the lord, however I believe Pastor Bradford s presence in Washington sends a clear message to this region of the country that he s very bias in his political views, and he has no problems implementing them into his worship experience and I m challenged with that, Brown said.
