This is Grandville, MI Several segments of the QAnon video are included in this article.
Snip:
"A megachurch in Grandville, MI showed a political propaganda video at a July 5 service blaming Democrats for the death of #GeorgeFloyd, #BlackLivesMatter, riots, and #Covid_19 (both as a hoax and for killing elderly people, somehow). It is 12 minutes of wild.
The videos insist Democrats staged the murder of George Floyd, that Covid is a hoax and that Dems planned an insurrection to last until the election.
Then the pastor comes on stage and reaffirms everying in the video. He also says he is 68 years old (he says almost 69! 🤣 , and he has been studying the Bible for 69 years.
His church also doesn't pay taxes. Which is good for him, because he's bad at math."
I think there are 7 video clips included here.

(4,522 posts)The last time I attended church was on an easter Sunday in 2002. While I sat waiting for my Father after Sunday school they were playing a film in the auditorium on the evils of Islam and how to convert a Muslim. That was the final straw for me. I was able to make it through the service without an outburst, but I wouldn't be able to do that now.
I think it's very apparent to most, Christianity IS a political party.

(22 posts)I dont recommend attending services at certain churches during Fourth of July weekend. A theme that could be presented is what went wrong with America. I remember one pastor laying it all out of what he saw as wrong with society. Its amusing that he stated that both political parties were problematic,
but he really didnt care to elaborate on what was wrong with the Republican Party.
