I grew up LCMS, my family became WELS when we moved to Southern Wisconsin, then became ELCA. I’m now back to LCMS, thank God. We left the ELCA exactly for this reason, with their preaching anti-Bush from the pulpit a second reason.
I’m LCMS as well. ELCA churches have been fighting this for years. I’m glad it’s hurting them in the pocket book. Perverting the word is exactly what the dark side wants.
