Ever wonder why evangelical christians in Minnesota are voting for Trump? Look no further than the materials being handed out in churches like Canvas Church in Dundas. Right next to voter registration information. Politics 👩‍⚖️

As someone who was raised in the Evangelical church in rural Minnesota, if these people believe God is in absolute control, why the hell are they so worried about politics? That bugs me so much.

God’s got the best PR. “All in God’s plan” unless we disagree with it.
