Believers should be prepared for attacks on their faith in 2023, according to Christian singer Sean Feucht.
This comes after a newspaper editorial labeled his ministry, "Let Us Worship," as "dangerous." Feucht, who started the worship tour in response to COVID-19 lockdowns, has faced opposition before. He has been fined, persecuted, and had his equipment vandalized.
Despite the challenges, Feucht believes that Christians are seen as a threat to the culture's values. He argues that the resistance to the church stepping outside of its four walls is an attempt to keep its influence limited.
Feucht sees the church as "dangerous" because believers are becoming more vocal in speaking out against ideologies that contradict Christian and conservative beliefs. He welcomes the newspaper's criticism, as it shows that the church is awakening and becoming more aware of the potential threats to its liberties. Feucht also finds it ironic that the paper targeted his worship events while downplaying left-wing riots in 2020. He believes that the church needs to be more visible and joyful in its worship.
Feucht's "Let Us Worship" tour has taken him to nearly 150 cities across the United States. He saw an opportunity to launch a new movement after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Recognizing the power of state governments, Feucht felt a mandate to bring worship, revival, prayer, and unity to every U.S. capital.
Despite facing red tape and bureaucracy, Feucht believes the effort has been worth it. He shares powerful stories of transformation, such as a janitor in the Springfield, Illinois capitol who had prayed for Jesus to be worshiped there for 20 years. In Richmond, Virginia, a girl who had scheduled a sex-change surgery changed her mind after attending one of Feucht's events. These personal stories and answered prayers have made the tour incredibly powerful.
Feucht emphasizes the impact of gathering on the steps of state capitols. It brings attention to the church's presence and unity, surprising many who were unaware of the number of Christians in their communities.
Feucht cites an event in Olympia, Washington, where almost 6,000 Christians showed up on the Capitol steps. This demonstration of faith has made waves and is challenging the perception that the church is dormant or irrelevant.
