The commissioner of the NFL, Roger Goodell, is once again defending the upcoming Super Bowl’s Halftime performance by Bad Bunny.
According to Fox News, Goodell said, “Listen, Bad Bunny is…one of the great artists in the world, and that’s one of the reasons we chose him.”
Goodell further stated that he believes Bad Bunny is the right fit for the job “to unite people” right now. Speaking of Bad Bunny’s criticism of ICE during the Grammy Awards, Goodell stated:
…he understood the platform he was on and this platform is used to unite people and to be able to bring people together with their creativity, with their talents and to be able to use this moment to do that and I think artists in the past have done that. I think Bad Bunny understands that, and I think he’ll have a great performance.
This unity, however, may not be for all people. As Bad Bunny previously stated, he plans to use this time to give thanks to “queer icons.”

When cultural movements celebrate identities, lifestyles or ideologies that conflict with biblical teaching, Christians are not called to bend under pressure or remain silent to avoid backlash. Instead, we are called to stand with humility, compassion and courage—anchored in God’s Word, not public opinion.
As the world grows louder in defining its own version of truth, the Church must grow stronger in faithfully living out biblical principles, refusing to compromise what God has clearly spoken.
