Ugandan primate's 'incursion' into Georgia violates Windsor Report, Presiding Bishop notes
What a blessing to have such a godly bishop that speaks the truth so clearly to the Episcopal Church!
Ugandan primate's 'incursion' into Georgia violates Windsor Report, Presiding Bishop notes
I fully support the Presiding Bishop's comments and feel she is courageous. How sad that such a beautiful and historic Church is the center of such outrageous acts.
California Supreme Court legalizes same-gender marriage; Integrity hails decision
The California court demonstrated both clarity and resolve in its decision. Now the church should offer clarity and resolve as well. Either we are inclusive or not. How long do you play "keep away" with true inclusiveness? Even at the cathedral church in Los Angeles, where we have an allegedly "liberal" diocese, we hear resolute statements against "blessing same-sex unions" and even offering house blessings and are told we "should think with the mind of the church." Whatever that is... The greatest "heroes" of the faith thought contrary to (and drew flack from) "the mind of the church." Soon the church will have to realize that nobody cares if it's "still deciding" or still "working on it." I've been in a same-sex relationship for 33 years. God has richly blessed our relationship and our home while the church is "still deciding." At least the California court offered clarity today. As for the church... people will sadly still have to wonder if they've walked into a "safe" house of God or not.
Uganda archbishop responds to Presiding Bishop's objection to his 'incursion' into Georgia
Speaking of stunning arrogance and condescension, perhaps [Archbishop] Orombi should look in a mirror. Somehow, one would suppose, that he thinks theft and his self-righteous declarations of how our Presiding Bishop should act is listed as moral representations in scripture. I guess he didn't get to the part where Jesus says "only one thing is needed, love the Lord thy God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength…and love your neighbor as yourself." I thank our God the Father, the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit for Katharine and her wisdom and willingness to come to table of reason and discussion, even in spite of their disrespect and brigand attitude.Search
