@jallen1985 All of the Facebook people in the comments think he got in trouble for saying the name. That’s what Fox News has convinced them is happening in schools lmao no doubt they said he “disrespected” the name.

Chris Avell, the pastor of Dad's Place in Bryan, Ohio, was arraigned in court on January 11 for charges related to building code violations after he kept his church open to provide warmth and shelter for unhoused individuals. He pleaded not guilty to the alleged violations.
Court documents say that because the building is zoned as Central Business, people aren’t allowed to eat, wash clothes, or sleep there. In a December statement, the chief of the Bryan Police Department told 13 Action News that 'a reasonable amount of time was given for both the tenant and property owner to fix the issues.'
In an interview with local outlet the Village Reporter, Avell stressed that the building isn't a 'shelter, it's a church,' adding that 'we have put in things people can use, like a shower and a small ability to do laundry. Some who found this to be a home for them have stuck around.'
Avell reportedly said he will continue to keep his church doors open through the winter. 'This is what the word of God teaches ... This is how I worship my God,' he told WTOL 11.
He's expected back in court within 30 days of his arraignment date.
Every now and then we get the rare story about a Christian leader actually following the teachings of Jesus, and it often coincides with them being arrested.
This is actual religious persecution of a Christian by the state. An actual violation of religious liberty.
