The church should be the place where love for unbelievers is demonstrated. However, do you believe that Christians should take a moral stand when necessary? Maine voters, spearheaded by the church, recently overturned an ordinance allowing gay marriage. Would you consider that a good thing or a bad thing? I worry that there has been an errosion of solid ethical values in America. Gay marriage will be legalized in America within 10 years, and I believe that it is due to permissive attitudes. We as Christians must reach out the gay community and show that we, like God, love them. Your thoughts? Brian, I agree with most of what you’ve written.
