Well, well, well....

I hate when people tell me what to do.

I hate butting heads with people i love.

I hate when we use the Bible to tear each other down instead of loving each other well.

World Vision. Here's what i have to say.

I don't think that it matters if a gay person works for an organization that helps the most needy people in the world. I also that we will ever come to a agreed upon stance on this, this side of heaven.

I believe that we are called to love people, for better or worse. I don't believe that love looks like denying someone a job...nor do i believe love looks like pulling out of a child sponsor ship because you don't agree with how someone lives their private life.

I don't believe that's what Jesus would do.

I also think if you make a choice, stick with it. Don't go back on it because you get heat. You're gonna get heat for this. I, personally, refuse to die on the homosexuality hill. I just don't do it. They can work it out with Jesus when they meet him.

Here the thing....people think Christians are hypocrites, and ignorant, and this reversal of their decision just added fuel to that fire. Again, i don't think this is what Jesus wants. I don't think it's what Jesus would do.

I don't think that advancing the kingdom looks like driving a wedge between us and them, them being the people who need jesus the most.

And i hate that because i work for the church, i can't post this on facebook or other social media. i'll post it here because no one reads this...and this is just where i put my best kept secrets.

So what i'm saying is, homosexuality is an issue that is very near and dear to a lot of people. it's a battle that's never going to stop.

So, let's just make this side of heaven a little bit better by just loving each other well, by praying for peace, and helping where you can.


and i that's what i think about that.
