"A California church has decided to part ways with the Southern Baptist Convention’s official position on homosexuality after a pastor informed members of his congregation that his son was gay and he changed his views on homosexuality.
New Heart Community Church’s pastor Danny Cortez, wrote a letter to Christianity with Humanity blogger John Shore last week explaining how a conversation about Macklemore’s LGBT-rights anthem “Same Love” had inspired his son to come out to him last fall.
Months earlier, shore had told his son he had changed his views on homosexuality.
“I couldn't help but think that my 15 year journey was in preparation for that moment,” Shore wrote. “If it wasn't for this 15 year journey and my change in theology, I may have destroyed my son through reparative therapy.” Full story here via the Gaily Grind!
