Drag Queens Sabotage Kirk Cameron Christian Story Hour
Who would have ever thought reading a book based on biological reality and biblical principles would garner national outrage and protests from men dressed as women?
That is sadly exactly what is coming against Kirk Cameron as he continues unabated to read books promoting American and biblical values to children at publicly funded libraries.
Those who work under the umbrella of the far-left leaning American Library Association, have taken exception to Cameron’s work and are making moves to stop him.
The hatred for Cameron, and his goal of teaching children biblical values, has become so strong that one library director was recently fired for attempting to sabotage a story hour in the middle of Cameron’s reading.
As reported by Faithwire, “The board of a library in northern Tennessee voted this week to fire the director of its Hendersonville library after he allegedly tried to sabotage a February event with Christian author and actor Kirk Cameron.
“In a 4-3 vote, the members of the Sumner County Library Board booted Allan Morales, according to Sumner County Mayor John Isbell, who confirmed the ouster was ‘related to the Kirk Cameron event.”
The event was co-hosted with “Duck Dynasty” star Missy Robertson and former University of Kentucky women’s swimmer Riley Gaines, who said that initially Morales was very cordial and excited to host the event.
Two days before the event took place the library released a statement highlighting their excitement:
“We are working hard to ensure they have the platform to read their books and citizens have a comfortable venue to participate. Mayor Clary [of Hendersonville, TN.] is working with our Hendersonville Police to ensure traffic and logistical issues are addressed,” the statement read.
That was until he learned about Cameron’s conservative Christian beliefs.
“He started a campaign in the community to shut [the event] down without officially canceling it, because then he knew that it wouldn’t be good for their library,” said Robertson on the “Unashamed with Phil & Jase Robertson” podcast.
Yet once Cameron, Gaines and Robertson were on-site to shoot a promotional video for the event, Morales and several library staff began making excessive noise during the shooting session, to include “banging books, kicking cabinets and playing loud music,” according to Robertson.
As it turns out, the targeting of Cameron’s Christian story hours is not an isolated incident.
More recently, a group of drag queens crashed Cameron’s reading at Fayetteville Public Library in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
“The drag queens blocked the views of some families and children and distracted others from the book reading and remarks from the stage,” said Brave Books, Cameron’s book publisher.
Cameron released this statement after the disturbance:
“The small group of protesters, which included some grown men wearing silly makeup, dressed in skirts and heels, pretending to be women, listened to the reading of a kids book about God’s view of gender called, ‘Elephants Are Not Birds.’
“At the close of this sweet and funny story of a singing elephant named Kevin who was tricked by a vulture named ‘Culture’ into thinking he might be a bird, the reader then asked the 300 children, ‘Do you think elephants can be birds, even if they strap on silly wings and a beak?’
“In unison, and with great laughter, all 300 children confessed with gusto, ‘No!’
“I felt sad for the men in skirts. As it is written, ‘You have taught the little children to praise you perfectly. May their example shame and silence your enemies,’ (Ps. 8:2).”
Do not expect this to be the last of these types of incidents either.
There is a spiritual war going on for the souls of the children of America, and Satan is doing everything he can to warp the minds of these innocent children.
He aims to confuse them about their designed genders and identities, identities that can only ever be fully realized in relationship with Jesus Christ.
Thankfully, there are those like Cameron, Robertson and Gaines who are standing up to this indoctrination of gender ideologies, but there needs to be more Christians engaged in the spiritual battle.
This is not the time to drop one’s guard, but to put on the full armor of God and take the fight to the enemy, much like Cameron is doing. By speaking life to these young children, he is helping set them up on a path of success, purpose and most importantly, teaching them that there is a God in heaven who designed them and loves them. {eoa}
