A Prayer For This Web Site
Almighty God, you proclaim your truth in every age by many voices; Direct, in our time, we pray, those who speak where many listen and write what many read; that they may do their part in making the heart of this people wise, its mind sound, and its will righteous; to the honor of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
"For those who Influence Public Opinion,"
Book of Common Prayer, page 827

In our church, neither a person's gender nor their sexual orientation matter; what does matter is how they serve Jesus Christ as Lord.

You are Called to Make a Difference (2nd Video)

Last week I began here with a series of videos from the American Anglican Council on the general theme 'Choose This Day'. These short videos are prepared by AAC and ACN (Anglican Communion Network). The speakers include Bishop Robert Duncan, and others who (in general) disagree with the direction the Episcopal Church has taken in recent years. I -- for one -- disagree with the posture of these men, but I think we as Christians and Episcopalians are called upon to examine all the evidence presented and _then_ decide what to do and where to go.

This second presentation is entitled 'You are Called to Make a Difference' and you can view it HERE . This week's speaker is Bishop Robert Duncan of Pittsburgh, PA. Please watch and listen carefully. Future presentations will be given by Kendall Harmon, a canon and scholar in the Episcopal Church, whose web-blogs appear in our links on this page. If you missed last week's presentation outlining some of the complaints about ECUSA by these men, I suggest you view it first. (Look at the entries from several days back, entitled 'Choose This Day'.

I will again insist that as an Episcopalian who also happens to be gay, I am quite happy and content where I am. Our church teaches from the Bible -- God's Word -- and I find nothing in God's Word which specifically deals with homosexuality. Others will disagree with me, of course. Anyway, check out this second in a series of videos from AAC. Let's try and be fair with them, and at least listen to their messages.
