The largest church in the state of Alabama has been “canceled” by the Birmingham Housing Authority because Pastor Chris Hodges follows Turning Point USA founder and president Charlie Kirk on social media and has “liked” Kirk’s Instagram posts. Donald Trump Jr. commented on the city’s actions, tweeting: “They’re canceling the pastor of the largest (and most racially diverse) church in Alabama just because he liked some of [Charlie Kirk’s] posts. Absolutely insane.”
The Housing Authority of the Birmingham District Board of Commissioners Monday voted to end its partnership with Church of the Highlands, citing the pastor’s social media activity, according to a report by AL.com.
Pastor Chris Hodges fell under scrutiny for following and “liking” social media posts by Turning Point USA president Charlie Kirk.
Hodges is also the founder of the Church of the Highlands, Alabama’s largest church, which averages more than 40,000 worshipers weekly, making it one of the largest churches in the country, according to AL.com.

Matthew 10:14
And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
IF they keep shutting us down, maybe we should work out some sort of secession plan. I don’t want to be governed by the left.
Time to let them hear from y’all.
Food pantry, plus free medical care, plus home repairs and other types of practical assistance.
Normal Blacks have to start speaking up. They’ll never have a bigger champion than Trump in their corner, but they have to make the first move.
40,000 votes for Trump!!!!!!
Sue the city.
It’s time to engage and take the fight back.
You’re seeing the purge now. This is just the beginning. Soon they’ll remove your children if you like things they don’t.
Then they’ll just haul you away with the socialist police for wringthink for re-education.
Stand up America.
The pastor is a spiritual weakling who already has apologized for liking tweets that are factually correct. What a sad excuse for a spiritual leader.
Soon they’ll remove your children if you like things they don’t.

Just read about the young woman who had a tame, mild social media, which she kept that way on purpose.
She was (fired, or not promoted, don’t remember) because she did not have posts supporting SJW and BLM and stuff like that.
I didn’t know who Charlie Kirk is. But obviusly he’s a bad dude. Guess I need to check him out!
Take it up with Secretary Dr. Ben Carson.
Reminds me how Jesus was shunned by the rich and powerful of Judea because he dared to dine with tax collectors, whores and not so goodly people.
His reason: They NEEDED Him now. The rich and famous would be like the rich man in Hell who wanted Lazarus to fetch him some water.
He is a bought and paid for shill for the Chamber of Communism and the cheap labor express.
RINOs need to go extinct, and ending TPUSA would be a great start.
Yes, this BS is getting to be too much, we need more fighters on our side, the president is always fighting for all of us by his lonesome.
I used to attend his church. Not a big fan nowadays but he did absolutely nothing wrong here. Stand up for yourself. Next, he’ll apologize for saying Jesus is the only way.
It’s called civil war and the faster we come to realize this worldwide event, the better off we will be.
