Well said, Shane!

[Shane L. Bishop @RevShaneBishop]

Networks, denominations and associations are formed so like minded Christians can focus on missional objectives without division and distraction.

When they fail in this primary task, they fail their very purpose for existence.

Gay movement: the sex you’re attracted to is hardwired at birth, even though there’s no gay gene.

Trans movement: your sex is entirely fluid, even though there is a definitive sex chromosome.

LGBT movement: you must believe both of those things at once, or else you’re a bigot.

4 evangelicals
5 Catholics
2 people of other faith
6 nones

@KeithMcilwain @FakeAnnBoleyn I hope that if some progressives start the exodus, others will follow. The more who leave, the less tenable...

The term conversion therapy is not well defined.

well defined.

[Tom Lambrecht @revtlambrecht]

Thanks, Jamie. I believe that we can offer the transforming work of the Holy Spirit for unwanted same-sex attraction. The term conversion...

If you depend on money for happiness your prayers about financial stress will be little more than worrying in God's direction.
