HOBOKEN – Churchgoers attending Sunday service at St. Matthew Trinity Lutheran Church celebrated the renaming of their pastor.

The Rev. Rose Beeson has been transitioning from woman to man since last summer, sharing the journey with parishioners.

After giving a sermon on what is known in the church as Transfiguration Sunday, the Rev. Tracie Bartholomew, bishop of the New Jersey congregation, held a "renaming ceremony" where Beeson will now be called Peter.

I’m surprised anybody still goes to that church.

Mutilating oneself due to a mental illness is considered a “journey” these days. Other people cheer you on.

These “churches” are nothing more than liberal cults. They don’t have a God to worship any more so they make up their own religion.

There are still some Lutheran synods that hold to Biblical Truth, most prominent being the LCMS (lutheran church missouri synod) and the WELS (wisconsin synod). There are a few others. I wish the ELCA would stop calling themselves Lutheran. They are not even Christian at this point.

This is the ELCA. They aren’t really a “church” at all, they’re more of a club for SJW’s, funded by old ladies who don’t realize their church has betrayed and deserted them.

Those attending and not experiencing the “gag reflex” were probably not paying attention.

Is the “pastor” saying God made a mistake?

He can’t tell what gender he is, but he thinks he is a spiritual authority. Seems that he missed the scripture that states it is abhorrent to God for a man to dress as a woman.
