A Good Article on the Basic Problem

The link below is to an article I read onVirtueOnline, a blog site for conservative Episcopalians. It addresses so well what I have often tried to say: The problem mainline denominations are facing is about wandering away from our Biblical base, not sexual sins themselves. Such sins, among others, are symptomatic of what we get when we lose our Way.

This one quote is particularly clear. ""We make an error that this is just about human sexuality. The primary debate is; what is the gospel, what is the mission of the church and what is leadership in the church. Various sections of the Anglican Communion have, over the years, lost their way in terms of the gospel, mission and have no fear electing leadership who have neither the gospel nor mission in their hearts."

Check it out.
