Stacy Sauls Steps up in the WSJ



Bishop Stacy Sauls responds to the recent egregiously erroneous and blatantly biased op-ed about the Episcopal Church in the WSJ. Read it all here.
"[The Episcopal Church] is deeply true to the tradition of Jesus, Jesus who offended the "traditionalists" of his own day, Jesus who was known to associate with the less than desirable, Jesus who told his followers to seek him among the poor. It is deeply true to the tradition of the Apostle Paul who decried human barriers of race, sex, or status (Galatians 3:28). What ails the Episcopalians is that this once most-established class of American Christianity is taking the risk to be radically true to its tradition. There is a price to be paid for that. There is also a promise of abundant life in it."
