“Gays,” the “American Church,” and 2 Severed Relationships – Jer Swigart.
There is a fascinating conversation emerging among Evangelicals, an increasingly Millenial/GenX rejection of Boomer evangelicalism that is resulting in a rethinking of the viability of Protestant Christianity in its North American form. Triggered most recently by the World Vision fiasco, Jer is on target in highlighting the growing generational rift over faith and Bible and human sexuality. This is a well thought out piece that is pointing to debate that is going to destroy denominations and those that survive, a generational shift in leadership marked with Boomer piety, liberal or fundamentalist, that will not go easily into the night.
