Joel Osteen is the pastor at one of the biggest churches in the United States — Lakewood Chuch in Houston, Texas — and is seen on television by millions of people each and every week.
But a sermon Osteen started to give on Sunday was interrupted by three female pro-choice protesters who stripped down and made it clear they demanded to be heard, according to a report from Mediaite:
The Lakewood Church congregation, led by pastor Joel Osteen, began reciting their morning prayer which opens every service at the church.
“This is my Bible. I am what it says. I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do,” they said in unison. “Today I will be taught the word of God. I boldly confessed. My mind is alert. My heart is receptive. I will never be the same.”
“God bless you!” Osteen replied as the congregation began to take their seats.
Right before Osteen was to begin his Sunday message however, a group from ‘TX 4 Abortions’ sitting close to the center of the stage, began to remove their clothing and shout.
Pro-choice activist Julianne D’Eredita yelled:
She was followed by the next woman, who loudly exclaimed:
D’Eredita then changed the opening prayer around to fit the moment:
The three women were quickly escorted out by security, and once outside, D’Eredita told a local Houston TV station:
“I know it seems very outrageous to do it in a church in a private space. However, the people that are enforcing these laws have no qualms coming up to women in private spaces such as doctors’ offices and medical clinics to harass them and call them murderers.”
Hell yes! Let the church say amen!
