“We look for the best people in the world and that’s who they were,” said Carol Blythe. “We’re very excited.” The 155-year-old church severed ties with the Southern Baptist Convention in 2012: It was at loggerheads with the group on several issues, including the SBC’s stance against homosexuality. Calvary Baptist still affiliates with American Baptist Churches USA.

Sorry, Carol, if a homosexual couple is the "best" you can drum up to lead your congregation, then I would not expect God to bless your ministry. I'm sure the SBC was glad to be rid of this group.

I’m sure they were. I expect this congregation to die out soon and hopefully be replaced with an SBC community
