STOP PRAISG PASTOR ANDY STANLEY FOR PRETENDG TO LOVE GAY PEOPLE
Readg Time: 4 mutFor the past few days, an out-of-ntext clip om Pastor Andy Stanley, the lear of North Pot Communy Church Alpharetta, Geia, has been circulatg onle bee he appears to wele gay people his church a way that seems unual among evangelils. … [If we uld] figure out how to get straight people as exced about servg and engagg as the gay and women I know, we would have a volunteer backlog.
… A gay person who still wants to attend church after the way the church has treated the gay muny, I’m tellg you, they have more fah than I do. A gay person who knows, “You know what? I’m tellg you: The gay men and women who grew up church, and the gay men and women who’ve e to fah Christ as adults, who want to participate church?
A gay man or woman who wants to worship their Heavenly Father, who did not answer the cry of their heart when they were 12 and 13 and 14 and 15—God said “No” and they still love God? His msage seems pretty clear to me: Straight evangelils uld learn a lot about mment to their church by takg a cue om gay Christians who’ve been monized and trmatized by church lears yet rema voted to the fah. But to take that pot and pretend Stanley is sayg anythg unique about gay people is a stretch that’s not backed up by anythg.
