The “Karen” Christian (Not Caring)

Cartoon of a woman labeled “The ‘Karen’ Christian (Not Caring)” pointing and yelling at a neighbor to stop mowing on the Lord’s Day and go to church, while holding a Bible.

Matthew 12:9-14

After Jesus healed on the Sabbath… the Pharisees went out and plotted how they might kill Jesus.

‘Karen’ Christian
Reaching the lost for Jesus one blowhorn at a time?

The cartoon shows a “Karen” Christian telling the neighbor to stop mowing on the Lord’s Day, shower off the “stink,” and get to church. The Bible is in one hand. The finger is pointed with the other. The “(NOT CARING)” line under the title makes the attitude clear before the dialogue even starts.

It’s a light observation about tone. The day itself isn’t the problem. The way it’s enforced can be. The neighbor is still outside with the mower. The person doing the yelling is treating the invitation more like a demand.

Don’t be like this “Karen.”

Note: My apologies to all the good women out there named Karen. You are not to be confused with the modern slang term for someone perceived as entitled, demanding, and quick to escalate minor issues—like a guy mowing his grass on a Sunday morning.

Know a pastor who could use a clean reminder from Matthew 12? Forward this one.
