Pastor resigns from church over the pro-Trump views of his congregation.
This byline has been popping up quite often lately as church pastors take a hard look at their controversial support for Donald Trump. On October 11, a Christian Reformed Church pastor from Holland, Michigan stepped down from his position due to the large support that his congregation has for President Donald Trump. It's a movement that is accelerating among America's Christian pastors. Keith Mannes has been a pastor for 30 years and said his concern for Trump grew after several events revealed that Trump was an instrument for "things that are just not very Jesus-like". He noted Trump's 2017 comments after the Charlottesville protest that there were "fine people on both sides". He also brought up Trump's famous photo op in front of St. Johns' Church
