It seems like wherever I look, I see more people getting tangled up in social issues, even Christians who believe it's their job to illuminate social issues and morally good to fight for them.
I find myself working harder to pull away from political battles, as they do nothing but stir up strife and hatred, even among Christians. I see the way we treat each other here, myself included, saying evil and horrible things to each other because of who we support or don't support. I think it needs to stop and we move past this.
One day, whether it's today or 7 years from now, Donald Trump will be out of office, and what will we have left? What part did we play in dividing the church and sowing hatred over a political figure who is here today, gone tomorrow?
