man of God

A powerful, idealized man of God casts his eyes down toward the ground beneath his feet, rather than heavenward.

“I played football but who I am is a man of God, a father, a husband, a mentor,” he said.

Bonhoeffer’s own legacy has lately been usurped by outspoken Christian nationalists, enough so that his own descendants have come out to decry anyone distorting his life and words as anything but a peace-loving man of God.

"You’re a man of faith, you’re a man of God, you’re a man of family. With some of these nominees, Gaetz, Pete Hegseth, RFK Jr., I wonder — does it matter anymore for Republicans to think of leaders as people who are moral in their personal lives?"

When CNN's Jake Tapper asked Johnson how he could support such nominees while claiming to be "a man of God," Johnson flashed his signature smarmy smile before praising them as "persons who will shake up the status quo."
