Not all people who call themselves Anglicans or Episcopalians are in endorsement of the recent actions of the Episcopal Church. There are a number of "traditionalists" who view these actions as a breach with the Biblical model of Christ's Church. If you are a concerned Christian, whether Episcopalian or not, please log on to:

This new site, which will be up-dated on a regular basis, is a wonderful resource and clearing-house to concerned Christians. Regardless of your denominational affiliation, you will find useful and helpful information. Please log on today, and share your comments.

Fr. Robert S. Biermann

Niebuhr thought that sustained moral energy in politics depended on religion's power to mobilize reason along with self-transcending love. The prophetic tradition, meanwhile, gave Jews and Christians some protection against the temptation to identify their social causes with God's will. Lincoln's second inaugural address expressed the prophetic insight, "The almighty has His own purposes."

I think in the future we will have to measure each church individually.

I blogged a bit about this topic. Though not Episcopalian, I am concerned about the recent events in the Episcopal Church. My blog is here:www.usfamily.net/web/gv.woodard/weblog/gregs_blog.htm

Several parishes are coming under the headship of overseas diocese. One my friend knows with Singapore.
