I Was Verbally Assaulted Outside the White House. Here is How I Responded.
Since I was already in Washington D.C. last week, I decided to accept an invitation to attend on my own time President Trump’s speech on the South Lawn of the White House.
Inside on the wide, green lawn of the White House, directly opposite the famed South Portico of the mansion, I heard Jesus’ name praised and proclaimed by the Reverend Franklin Graham and numerous other speakers.
There was Alice Johnson, a non-violent drug offender who spoke about God’s grace and forgiveness. And I heard the heart-breaking testimony of Carl and Marsha Mueller, parents of Kayla, who was kidnapped, repeatedly raped and murdered by ISIS terrorists. They told the world how their beautiful 25-year-old daughter found God in the suffering of her extended and horrendous captivity.
Light and life, redemption and forgiveness.
Stepping off the White House grounds, I was immediately confronted by angry individuals who hurled profane insults at me. They let loose with a verbal barrage I’ve never personally encountered – which is saying something given my upbringing in a rough section of Southern California.
“Why are you not responding?” one person screamed at me.
