During the first “March For Jesus” a few years ago in Washington D.C. there were about 3000 people gathered together. All the popular TV evangelist were allowed to speak. Those preachers that owned TV stations were allowed to speak. One by one down the line they spoke of how bad America was. They spoke of:

∑ Immorality

∑ Crime

∑ Hatred

∑ Abortions

∑ Drug addicts

∑ Alcoholism

∑ Child abuse

Until everyone there had there heads hanging and was depressed.

The last speaker of the day was an old preacher from Washington D.C. area. Maybe they just let him speak because he was a local preacher. His name was Bishop Smallwood Williams. He said, “Ladies and Gentlemen after hearing all that I heard today I just got one thing to say – GOD IS NOT IN TROUBLE.”
