Turning Points Stories of Life and Change in the Church

Church Member:
When I hear we have a law that says it's ok to be gay and be ordained, and it's even ok to say your're gay and be ordained, but it's not ok to fall in love and be gay and be ordianed... it just tears me up.

Shirley Guthrie:
If we hold on to past decisions of the church and past interpretations of Scriptures, then to refuse to change our minds about them is to be profoundly un-Reformed.

Vince Thomas:
What if God has given all the combination of gifts to someone who is openly gay or lesbian? Are you really going to deny them the opportunity to serve?... And if you do, what exactly are you goint to say to God when you die - 'I know you gave this person gifts, but I didn't think they were good enough to use them'?
