Albert Mohler’s article for The Washington Post
is a must-read. It’s a sobering reflection on where evangelicals stand

sexuality. He writes:
Evangelicals cannot join the moral
revolution on homosexuality, but it seems unlikely that we can stop it,

moral issues, may well lead to the marginalization of evangelical
Christians within the larger society. This is already the case in
secular Europe and, increasingly, in Great Britain and Canada as well.
Churches and other groups that cannot accept the full normalization of
same-sex relationships will find themselves driven further and further
from the cultural mainstream.

standing within the political and cultural mainstream, comfortable in an
America that shared much of our moral worldview. Those days are over. Continue at Denny Burk
