This guy sounds like a boob.
What a grandstanding ass.
Making little kids sad and/or confused.
Yeah, God and Jesus want that.
And look at the number of converts to Christianity he created!!!
God weeps and idiots like this doing evil in His name.
What a dick.
With all due respect pastor but you’re wrong
Terminally ill child dies in Santa’s arms

I had to skip work the next day.
If this is true, it is an unnecessary attack; Christianity has enough enemies that it need not make any more, and attacking Santa makes many more.
Personal story: one December when my son was just turning 3, he waddled up to me one day in his soon-to-be-grown-out-of diaper, and asked if there really was a Santa Claus. I calmly told him that Santa Claus was someone we made up to help us celebrate Jesus’ birthday (in later years we got more deeply into the St. Nicholas aspect). He waddled away and then 10 minutes later he waddled back to tell me all the things Santa was going to get him for Christmas. Three-year-olds are incapable of conceiving of a being that is defined but does not exist, and for him Santa was real enough. He turns 32 Wednesday, and is perfectly fine—and he knows all about Santa Claus, and St. Nicholas, and most importantly about how Christ’s sacrifice has saved him from the power of sin, death, and Satan.
What a creep.
My kids ( 21 to 35 years old) are not allowed to tell Mom there is no Santa. They don’t want to break her heart.
You can include both .. I’ll never forget when my oldest son got let in on the Santa mystery - as he helped wrap up his brother’s Christmas presents.
The whole time he was doing it he had this wonderful smile on his face; and then all of a sudden he turned and looked at me .. “you’re Santa aren’t you ..??” As I smiled at him, I told him all parents are Santa Clause.
Actually, he learned that’s why some children get more presents than others. It’s not because the children are bad, it’s because the parents don’t have the extra money.
You can teach great lessons, you don’t have to make a jerk of yourself in a public place and shatter all the dreams of the children. They will grow up soon enough .. let them enjoy the Santa-years.
And .. my son’s journey through Santa-mystery never stopped him from receiving Christ .. nor did it stop him from graduating from a wonderful Bible School where he was trained to be a children’s Pastor.
I grew up with St Nicholas not Santa Claus and I still think this guy is a jerk
Repent Amarillo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from David Grisham)
Repent Amarillo is a small Amarillo, Texas-based political and quasi-religious group which advocates for the “spiritual mapping” and targeting of specific local areas and venues in order to exorcise “demons” from those areas. Because of the group’s tactics and targeting of perceivably-vulnerable minorities, the group has gained infamy from critics who identify the organization as a hate group or a Christian analogy for the Lebanese militant group[1] Hezbollah (lit. “Army of God”). They have also been likened to a cult, and compared widely with Westboro Baptist Church.
The group is led by former Department of Energy security guard and self-designated pastor David Grisham.
Not gonna be popular here but I never lied to my children.
I was the one that had to spank them or correct them when they did wrong so no fictitious character was going to steal my thunder when they got rewarded.
That gift to you, your mom and I sacrificed so you could have that.
This ‘pastor’ may know the facts (law) but he definitely lacks the SPIRIT! He is a modern Pharisee and has lost sight of the need for love and spirit. Santa Claus is emblematic of the desire to give and share in this season of the Birth! This ‘pastor’ sews the seed of anger and disruption, which are Satan’s not God’s seeds!
A-holes like this pastor are contributing factors in the left’s success in turning the culture. I wonder how he would feel about atheists dropping by Sunday school and telling the kids Jesus isn’t real?
Not to be a spoil sport but isn’t a little weird that people will defend a mythological creation...a fable...a myth...and try to get our kids to believe it’s more real then Jesus?
Brings to mind New York Sun’s reply to a little girl, “Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.”
This asshat was a security guard at Pantex ........ he was terminated about 8 years ago.
Same tard that burned a koran in a Amarillo city park.
Let him burn a Koran and the muzzies will take care of the problem
