I almost denounced Delta Sigma Theta one week after joining. But it wasn’t because God told me. I was heavily attacked by Christians for being a Christian and choosing to join a sorority. The long unanswered question, “Should a Christian join a Fraternity or Sorority,” still remains on the minds of many people. There are some Christians that believe joining a Greek Letter Org is a sin; however, there is nothing in the scripture to support this belief. After much research and prayer you’d be surprised to know that God actually led me to Delta. He ordered my steps, sent me dreams to prepare me, and held my hand through the entire process. So I was shocked that one week after crossing, my best friend turned on me, called me an idolator and told people that I was practicing witch craft. She turned other people against me and divided the ministry we were leading together. I was so hurt that I almost quit ministry and Delta. I talk all about it in part 1 of this video.

I am a Delta and have recently found God and I am struggling with remaining a Delta or not because people are telling me I shouldn’t. I don’t see the signs from the Lord or Him telling me to denounce but everyone is telling me I need to for me to be completely free. What is your thoughts? I feel like I am going crazy.

Hi Soror,
You’re in the right place. When I first became a Delta, I was already a Christian. So I was on the look out for any type of idolatry that many legalistic christians speak about. And guess what? I found none. Just like you, God was not convicting me. In fact, He led me down this path. But the people (even a close friend) was so adamant that I had sinned and become an apostate (which is bizarre). I later found out that many people will try to convict or condemn you because of their own beliefs and misinformation about the organization. I also realized, that some of the people who are opposed to fraternities or sororities never joined one before :-/ they’re only going off of someone else’s experience. I’ve done my research before and after joining and I have not seen anything that goes against God. There are people who try to force their beliefs on you out of fear or ignorance. I’m very leery of them because God gives us freewill and He gives us grace. We have to trust that we can hear God clearly and confidently and that this is where He either led us or blessed us to be. I hope you find comfort in these words. If God has led you to join Delta then enjoy your time and spread His word. He is a faithful God and He doesn’t condemn those in His covenant (those who has said yes to salvation). If you ever need some support or additional resources I can send you a link to schedule a call with me. Because of this blog a lot of Deltas has reached out to gain clarity and now are free to enjoy Deltaland while still serving God. Let me know and I’ll shoot you an email. Looking forward to chatting 🙂
Hi Shamara,
I hope this finds you well. I am reaching out in hopes to hear from you more about being a Delta and a Christian. I am in a state of trying to figure this out as we are currently in the application process. I would greatly appreciate hearing your take and about your experience.
