So, she wants to sell records to people who she knows will openly condemn this lifestyle, due to their beliefs and what the Bible says .... or is there a large gay Christian music audience I am not aware of?

This woman represents a larger problem with the contemporary Christian music industry. Too many are in it just for the money, prestige and the fame. They use Jesus and God as trappings to make money, the words they sing to others have no meaning to them personally.

Paraphrasing a few lines from a Steve Camp song called Ministry

“We once sang for Jesus without charging a dime, and we called in ministry. We weren’t ashamed of the gospel, we let our light shine, and we saw lives saved and set free.”

“While singing about God’s love, they are indulging their lust and they dare to call it ministry.”

“We don’t need stars in the body of Christ, but servants who live a holy life, yes we’ve all seen the famous revel in their sin, but we need to see holiness live out again.”

“An ambassador of Christ must be chosen and called to deny ourselves for the glory of God!”

Not exact. Not all Christians are evangelical.

There’s still the Mainline Protestants. They’ll probably keep listening to her stuff.

Anyway I don’t understand why she had to make a ruckus. If you don’t want people to comment on your private life, don’t expose it.
