Christ the King Lutheran Church in Houston, TX, is led by Rev. Dr. Jennifer Hope-Tringali and Sergio Rodriguez, the latter of whom is a graduate of Baylor University and the Pastor of Community Living.
According to his bio on the church’s website, he “currently lives with his boyfriend Justin in Houston with their two cats and several plants.”
During the church’s June 10 sermon, impastor Rodriguez preached on Jesus asking who his true family was, describing Jesus coming to earth as an example of God “coming out” and “speaking his truth” in solidarity with the LGBTQ community.
Those of us who have had or have a family member who is coming out in any of the LGBTQIA spectrum, we know that these questions are mixed in with grief and fear over what will happen to my loved one now.
This occurs whenever people speak their own truth on how God has made them and is making them anew in many and various fabulous ways.
God sent Jesus to preach this healing message to a world wounded by all kinds of internalized “isms” that keep us from living the truth of whom God has made us to be/
And if I may be bold in saying this: we see God coming out in Jesus. We see how God begins to show God’s fullest self through the healing power of Jesus. And this God isn’t just coming out, but he’s coming to a world divided, listening to the lesser angels of our nature.
Somebody ate their Skittles before Mass.
What a load of crap.
Rev. Dr. Jennifer Hope-Tringali. There is your problem. “Jennifer” is a male?
I would submit that God’s fireworks show over — and, well, on — the “cities of the plain” was a better example of His “coming out” and “speaking His truth” to that community...
These people are heretics. Make no mistake about that.
My thoughts exactly.

Does anyone else find it ironic that the first 3 letters of LGBTQ also stands for Let’s Go Brandon.
Accident? I don’t think so. Someone has a sense of humor.
Let’s Get Brandon To Quit.....
E(L)CA hasn’t been Lutheran for a very long time. Wish they would drop his name.
Ghastly cat-man perverts, obviously satanic.
This is why nobody goes to these pervert places.
Here is the ELCA’s “bishop” of New England, “Gay” Nathan Pipho:

I don’t think that he is the only “gay” “bishop” in the ELCA either, but he sure stands out like a sore thumb!
Yeah ...
Well, God ZOTted two cities and Lot’s wife. There’s that to consider the next time you bend over to pick up the salt shaker.
What a pile of dead steaming heresy. How long dud it take to make up THAT fairy tale?
* as of August 19, AD 2009, a liberal protestant SECT, not part of the holy, catholic and apostolic CHURCH.
Be rooted in Christ!
In the HOly Orthodox Chu8rch tomorrow is the Sunday of the Holy. Fathers of the First Ecumenical Council at Nicea...what a perfect alignment for Fathers’ Day.
The fianl sticheron from the Orthros Praises speaks well to this disgraceful display in Texas:
When the holy Shepherds brought all
of their pastoral knowledge
* to the Council and they stirred
* their most righteous anger now justifiably,
* they drove out with the sling of the Holy Spirit
* the offensive and corruptive wolves,
* and from the complement of the Church of Christ they expelled them
all,
* as having fallen mortally, and as being ill and incurable.
* Thus they demonstrated themselves as loyal servants of the Lord,
* and sacred mystics of the divine
* and inspired preaching of Christ.
That is one scary dude(dudette?)!
Proverbs 16:18-20 KJV
Pride goeth before destruction, And an haughty spirit before a fall. Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, Than to divide the spoil with the proud.
