About this video

Shelton defends former NFL player Ray Lewis against critics who focus on his past legal troubles from 13 years ago, arguing that people should instead recognize Lewis’s current community work and outreach to youth. He criticizes those who judge others while doing nothing to help their communities themselves, calling this behavior inconsistent with Christian values. Shelton emphasizes that Lewis was acquitted and believes forgiveness and recognizing someone’s current character should take precedence over dwelling on their past.
