When you normally think of church, you picture a sacred place of worship, a holy place where the problems of the world are checked at the door and you’re free to bask in the glory of God and His goodness, safe from the horror show outside.

Unfortunately, that’s not the case anymore. A 70-year-old woman was recently punched in the face while she was praying inside Upper East Side Church in New York City.

This is truly deplorable.

Don’t believe there is demonic activity going on in the world out there? Just look at activity like this. People are talking about making it legal to murder children who survive abortions.

Things are horrific out there. And now you can’t even seek refuge from the madness in church. The evil follows you brazenly right through the front doors. Tragic.
