So, no longer necessary to be a Christian to be ordained as a Presbyterian minister.

Hasn’t been for a long time in the PCUSA. From its founding by merger in 1983, it has gone from 3.1 million members to around 1.1 million members. And the losses are much larger if you take the pre-merger numbers from the mid-1960s to the present.

She’s ordained in the Presbyterian Church USA (PCUSA). They are off the rails. The solid churches they had in the denomination left it decades ago. Please don’t confuse PCUSA with other Presbyterian denominations like the Presbyterian Church of America (PCA), the Evangelical Presbyterian Church (EPC) and several others that still are solid in the faith.
