January 6

A Trump promoting conservative political group made waves on MLK Day when they portrayed a quote of the iconic civil rights leader as supportive of the riot on the U.S. Capitol last year.

Amid the chaos, Jan. 6 was an outpouring of religious expression, especially prayer.

On January 6, 2021, an armed crowd forcefully entered the Capitol Building to stop Congress from certifying the 2020 election results. One year later, many evangelicals continue to deny the significance of the event.

On Thursday, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi announced “a full program of events” to commemorate January 6, including a prayer vigil on the steps of the Capitol Building.

Pastor Jim Cusick, his son and church official Casey Cusick, and church member David Lesperance, were charged in federal court with entering restricted grounds, disorderly conduct, and violent entry of the Capitol building.

Mike Pence is a “Judas," said Pastor Greg Locke, who made the comment shortly after a speech in which Pence said that he and Trump still do not “see eye to eye” on what happened on January 6.
