Chip and Joanna Gaines. Maybe you’re familiar with them. The self-described “Christian” couple is best known for their home renovation TV series “Fixer Upper,” but over the last couple of months, they’ve been making headlines for all the wrong reasons.
It all started back in July when it was announced that the couple was producing a new reality TV show called “Back to the Frontier,” which they pitched as a family-friendly program. It’s a show about families who leave modernity behind in pursuit of an 1800s lifestyle. It may sound good, but the casting choice was interesting, to say the least, for two self-described “Christians.” Chip and Joanna Gaines selected a gay couple with two young boys as one of the families for the show.
This, of course, was met with intense backlash from the Christian community. In response, Chip and Joanna doubled down. There was no apology; the best they could offer was a misquote of Scripture about being kind, loving, and affirming to all. According to Scripture, the real way to love someone is not to promote or indulge sinful lifestyles. But yet, that is the path that Chip and Joanna have chosen.
Since then, they have announced yet another “family-friendly” show. This time, it’s even more brazenly affirming of the LGBT cult. The show is called “Roller Jam.” It’s a roller skating game show featuring an all LGBT roller skating team, a pride activist host, and a gay cross-dressing judge.
If that wasn’t enough, the LGBT magazine “Out” fawned over the competition, calling it “the LGBTQ+ roller skating show we never knew we needed.”
Make no mistake, this is an abomination unto the Lord. If ever a show promoted and glorified deviant sexual lifestyles, it’s this one.
Let’s also remember that contrary to popular belief, the Bible does not tell Christians not to judge. That passage in Matthew actually continues, “For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.” John 7:24 tells us to “judge with righteous judgment.” We can and we should do that.
Chip and Joanna Gaines are endangering their souls to the wrath of God. They should repent and distance themselves from all of this mess, lest they forget Whose judgment matters most and is coming for all of us one day—and we must all be ready to give an account.
