A Texas-based couple is once again igniting Christian fury, shortly after debate over Gaines’ decision to include gay couples in Back to the Frontier, a program that tries to try families like people did in the 1800s.
I hope this isn’t true, but today I read that Chip and Joan Na Gaines are featuring a gay couple in a new series. If that’s true, that’s a very disappointing. We love people, but we must love them enough to tell them the truth of God’s Word. His words are absolute truth. …

“Two clips of Chip and Joan Na Gaines’ new ‘family-friendly’ reality TV show. “The strange activist as a host, cross dress judges dressing women in every episode, and the ALL-LGBTQ skate team” on social media, breaking various elements of concern.
CBN News’ Raj Nair and Billy Hallowell describe the latest confusion surrounding the Gaines family.
“The Daily Wire’s” Megan Basham is one of those who spoke about “Roller Jam,” and the writer is aiming for some of Chipgaine’s recent comments defending “back to the frontier.”
“This blows away the chip’s pretense that they are simply trying to be kind and understand individuals who identify with LGBTQ,” she said. “They clearly use their position and influence to promote disability sexuality and gender behavior.”

“Tell, ask the Qustns (sic), listen. “Too many to ask about modern American Christian culture. First Judge, Later/Never understand.”
Gaines continues, “It’s a sad Sunday when “non-believers” have never faced hatred or violence until they are introduced to modern American Christians. ”
