[WestSylvanian]

Thanks for the post. I’m a member of the declining PCUSA which is getting loonier and loonier at the national level and is seeing local congregations leaving in droves. I have a feeling my church may as well but the direction it will go probably would be to re-invent itself as some kind of vanilla, non-denominational church. At which point I will definitely leave. Seven generations of Presbyterians in my family. I know the Church’s history; I like its formal worship and beautiful hymns; and I like the tradition of a well-educated clergy. I will die a Presbyterian.

PCA & EPC are great option - take it from one who was PCUSA for years. When they kept spending our tithes on such things as “Re-imagining God” conferences.

There is also the OPC (Orthodox Presbyterian Church) that is not mentioned in the article. Look up J. Gresham Machen some time. The OPC split from the PCUS (I think that’s what it was called back then) in 1936.

At least change to the PCA. The PCUSA deserves to die for being part of the group of NCC churches who are not really churches at all but are really nothing more than political organizations that are there to advance socialism and communism. Please study the National Council of Churches.
