These kids don't know who bishop hanson is or the liberal agenda of the church and I don't know if I'm ready to move on to another church being single and 27. I feel like I owe it to the kids to stick it out and play keyboards with them and mentor them.
The ELCA church I belong to is the largest in the state of Illinois if I'm not mistaken, but there are some good people here. I completely disagree with the Sr. Pastor on faith and politics but I have his son as one of my employees at my store and I trust him completely.
So I'm stuck in a rut, what do I do???
For those that don't know me I am a right wing conservative Christian.
There is a political aspect to this. The ELCA is a left-wing political organization. Read the history of the National Council of Churches and you will see how they are purely political. This goes for the PCUSA, too. They are both beyond saving. Get out, now!!!
Leave, but only after explaining why.
You are not letting the kids down, the denomination is. Maybe your witness to the truth (calmly, with love) may inspire others to live their Christian faith better. Maybe others agree and just need you to speak up first. Or maybe they disagree and it will become clearer that there is nothing more you can do. If you find another church, there will be children there who need you, too. If you keep doing the music for the kids where you are and do not air your concerns appropriately, they will more likely grow up as mistaken as their parents.
Also, pray before you say anything, so your words will be Spirit-filled.
Best wishes.
