Bumper Sticker

The other day, I was stopped at a stop light when a car pulled up in front of me with the following bumper sticker, “People looking for God in the 11th hour are usually dead buy 10:30.”

What an awful thing to say. Instead of inviting others to be part of your faith because of love, peace, growth, etc., the sticker’s message uses fear and bully tactics to get others to follow a set of religious beliefs. 

I cannot stand when anyone, a coach, a teacher, a parent, a leader, etc., uses fear to get their tribe to follow (AKA, do what the leader wants). Doing so will impede the growth of those they lead. 

I do not believe in bumper sticker religion. What you do, not what you say on the back of your car, counts.

Just Be Better

Stay Healthy, Stay Strong.
