Ones love for God and how they earn their income has nothing to do with the other unless of course your a Preacher. Why can't one be an Actor and a Preacher. Only God can pass judgement on us, as the Bible states "let those without sin cast the first stone", or better yet "Those who live in Glass Houses shouldn't throw Stones." Leave the young lady alone.

Thank you Starek and you are correct; the bible says women cannot be a pastor. We should though use her to spread the gospels of Jesus Christ and the word and continue to look for ways to glorify Jesus Christ and pray for sister Omarosa.

She seemed to be taking the wrong path for quite some time. Quite angry and self centered. I pray that Christ humbles her soul and shines his gentle light upon her.
