McLean Bible Church is roiled over the issue of Wokeness. Church members who are insufficiently Woke, were dressed down in a Facebook post by an associate pastor at the church. The associate pastor praised David Platt and blasted critics upset with church leadership as “insensitive” to people of color and the marginalized.
The associate pastor wrote in a Facebook post, “To those of you (esp. in our church) who have criticized him for acknowledging the hurt his decision caused, and who have even had the calloused audacity to malign those who are hurt, your brash insensitivity is the reason why so many minority and marginalized people struggle to be a part of ‘Evangelical’ churches.
