We Provided The Script, How the Church Fueled Its Own Mockery.

To My Fellow Sojourners,

What a first few weeks of 2026 it has been. Just as we exited a brief window of dress drama dilemmas, we entered into another: a mega-church skit by a very popular comedian whose views have amassed over 40 million and 3 million likes. I’ll just say what we collectively in our humanity are really thinking... it’s not that deep.

Now, I’ll just say what all of us in our Spirit have been sensing... The Kingdom is Nigh.

Let’s start with our humanity first... because until we put parameters and definition to that, we’ll confuse what’s going on in our Spirit man—so let’s chat.

People who are “public figures” serve you, but they do not belong to you. And the outrage over a fellow woman of God’s fashion choice at an external event is not the jurisdiction of the masses to provide correction on. I recently engaged someone online (which I do rarely) who thought it appropriate to use this “online trending topic” as leverage for her “prophetic voice” and ministry. She used the Scripture "older women teach the younger women" as the foundation for a campaign of verbal insult to another woman. I boldly corrected this in holy indignation, stating the hypocrisy and violation—and almost predatory approach—this is: to assume you have the authority in someone else’s personal life to correct, rebuke, and reprove absent of relationship and investment.

That is not teaching; that is entitlement.

And the entitlement to think that your “gifts,” “age,” or anything else for that matter gives you the right to ridicule under the guise of rebuke is exposing a much deeper, deep-seated issue within our Christian culture: attempting to amass influence not by revealing Jesus to followers, but by attacking His followers with His own word. And people are so feeble-minded to accept these “hot takes” and stupidity as valid contributions to the faith when Paul clearly states that there are wolves in sheep’s clothing. Those who will be among us, acting as though they are us, but are on assignment to destroy us. These “Christian content creators” initiating slanderous campaigns without ever uttering a word of prayer to the Father on their behalf are sent to destroy. I won’t get into the specifics of the dress because it doesn't matter. The dress exposed hearts—and that matters much more.

Leading me to the mega-church parody... it never amazes me the things we’re willing to be offended at. A comedian doing his job of jesting. If I was an actor at the Golden Globes in the audience, I wouldn't dare be offended by the "ceremonial roasts" that the host conducts. I would be a good sport because that’s part of the job. Protecting your heart from offense looks at what the reality of the situation is versus the feeling of it at onset.

The comedian was not making fun of church; he was the church. He was mocking the often-viral antics of a subset of the western church—the Mega-church. And he would have nothing to jester if the content was not provided. He did not “create” that skit more than he mimicked a moment... moments that, if we are honest, have happened quite often in the social media spaces where people forget that antics don’t equal anointing, neither does it replace it.

And that’s not problematic to me. Remember, he was given that content and the space for production by... you guessed it... a church.

So then, who is really the problem here? Is it the “secular world” or is it us, the Church, for our own habitual lack of reverence in our own temples and sacred spaces that provide the fuel for this kind of behavior?

The dress dilemma proved we collectively don’t know how to honor and respect our own. How can we be mad when the world follows our lead in the irreverence of our institutions, leaders, and public servants?

After all, judgment starts in the House of God. So maybe we are not being mocked—just simply reaping what we’ve sown.

Sincerely,

Galatians 5:15
