Bill, I salute you for your willingness to stand up for the word of God. This issue will continue to be a thorn in the side of every chuch, but we must not waiver in our understanding of God's word. We do need to send a message that the church is here to minister to all God's children, and being homosexual does not decrease God's Love or forgiveness. We are all guilty of sin and stand in need of forgiveness. I do read your sermons occasionally and enjoy most of them, but I wanted you to know you are not alone in this fight. I need to speak with you regarding special services planned for Wentworth's 150TH anniversary. Please email me so I can share details, Thanks Marty Rev.
