A homosexual who sincerely desires to know Christ ought to be welcome in any church ... but *not* as the leader of the flock in worship. That is ridiculous. Why then not an openly alcoholic, or proudly adulterous, or prominent pedophile? The calling to be God's shepherd comes with a higher responsibility. Step up or get out. This church made a good decision and I hope many more will follow suit. When the line is drawn between following the Bible or the ELCA, the choice is obvious.

Holding a homosexual pastor up for admiration would be like a Catholic holding up Alexander VI as a model pope.
