An Impossible Vision
Years ago it might have been very difficult to imagine that one day a man would be paid almost a billion dollars to talk, or that same man would brag that he leaves every light in his mansion on all night, or that he would be working on his fourth wife, or that he would pay an openly and militant gay man 1 million dollars to sing at his wedding, or that he would blaspheme the name of God on his radio show, or that his show would contain endless self righteous statements of braggadocio, or that the consuming content of his radio show is attacking, complaining, and incessantly lifting up an economic view as a divine idol. It would have been very difficult to imagine such a scenario.
What would have been impossible to imagine is that someone could endorse such a man and still claim to be a believing follower of Jesus Christ.
