You gave a primer on homosexuality and the church last year with the main conclusion being that homosexuality is a sin that God will judge and our responsibility as Christians is to be loving. But on a more practical or specific level, how are Christians supposed to respond when we’re faced with gay marriage on the ballot? Maryland’s Governor introduced a same-sex marriage bill and a bunch of Christians decided to march and protest. That seems like a giant waste of time, particularly if the sin is homosexuality, not whether or not gays go on to get married. If God has given each of us free will to choose His way or not, shouldn’t we get out of the way of gays who have chosen to go their own way?
CAYA Service is the first Wednesday evening of the month and features a social hour, free food, a live band and praise team.
