U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar is under fire again, this time for calling President Trump’s adviser Stephen Miller – a Jewish man – a “white nationalist.”

According to USA Today, Omar took to Twitter on Monday to voice her opinion on if Miller should have a say in regard to policy.

Omar wrote, “Stephen Miller is a white nationalist. The fact that he still has influence on policy and political appointments is an outrage.”

The freshman representative also attached an article from SplinterNews.com to her tweet which outrightly calls Miller a “white nationalist.” The article blames Miller for President Trump withdrawing Ronald Vitiello’s nomination for the head of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency so that the administration could take ICE in a “tougher direction.”

Omar’s tweet was not on the internet long before attracting the attention of news outlets, constituents, and fellow legislators. 

Kyle Morris of Breitbart News commented on the Tweet noting, “You do know he’s Jewish, right?”

Virginia coach Tony Bennett led the school to its first-ever national championship Monday night, but he didn’t want the credit. 

He thanked his players. He thanked his family. And he thanked God. He even credited a contemporary Christian song for inspiring the team. 

The Cavaliers defeated Texas Tech 85-77 in overtime in the NCAA men’s basketball championship, completing an improbable run that saw them win their last three games in nail-biting fashion.

“I played a song for them today called Hills and Valleys by Tauren Wells, and it just means that you’re never alone in the hills or the valleys,” Bennett said during a post-game CBS interview. “And we’ve faced those from last year to this year, but the credit goes to these young men. And I can’t wait to celebrate with my wife and my kids and my parents. I do want to thank the Lord and my Savior.”

Bennett is an outspoken Christian who nearly became a pastor before going into coaching. He has built Virginia into a national powerhouse, although the Cavaliers needed near-miraculous finishes in their last three games. On Monday, a late three-pointer by De’Andre Hunter forced overtime. In the semifinals, they needed three free throws by Kyle Guy with less than one second left to edge Auburn. In the Elite Eight, Virginia would have lost if not for a buzzer-beating shot by Mamadi…

I was recently asked for my take on the controversy surrounding Francis Chan speaking at what some call “questionable events.” I took time to pray while driving three hours to one of these events to meet Francis and hear him speak. When I posted the picture on my Facebook page, it created quite a firestorm, branding me as heretical, ecumenical, and part of the NAR (I don’t even know what that is unless they meant the NRA). The irony is that nothing could be further from the truth; listen to the controversial sermon here beginning at the 18-minute mark and judge for yourself. 

My ministry allows me to meet many different Christians. Last week I attended the National Religious Broadcasters event, was invited to Fox News studios in Los Angeles just days later, and worked with Pure Flix’s Billy Hallowell on the new series After Columbine earlier in the month and was able to chat with Ray Comfort before filming. My schedule provides many opportunities for me to observe what’s going on in American Christianity. 

When I met Francis backstage, I found him to be very humble and eager to listen as we talked about these issues. True to form, he also delivered a powerful message on repentance. Isn’t that our goal as preachers? The event moved me deeply during worship, and I had the opportunity to meet some of the other speakers such as Corey Russell and…

Should pastors wear expensive clothing? A new Instagram account has brought national attention to the question, ruffling the feathers of high-profile pastors along the way.

A man who identifies himself as Tyler started the account, PreachersNSneakers two weeks ago. In each post, he pairs a picture of a pastor posted on social media with a screenshot of the price of the shoes he is wearing. Some of the price tags have topped out over $1,000, igniting a debate about pastors’ pay and whether a pastor should dress in clothes members could never afford.

The account created a stir, amassing over 80,000 followers in the first two weeks and has been featured in stories on Buzzfeed and Fashionista.

Tyler told Fashionista about the origin of the account. He explained that he is an evangelical Christian whose wife works for a church and that he has also been “really into buying and reselling sneakers.” He said he was looking for a song by Elevation Worship one Sunday and a noticed the lead singer was wearing a pair of Yeezy 750s, which go for around $800 on resell sites. 

This led him to look at photos of Elevation’s pastor, Steven Furtick. He found a picture of Furtick wearing a rare pair of Jordans that resell for $900. Then he looked up other influential pastors and noticing that they were wearing high-end clothing and “the highest resell kicks in the game.” He made…
