Sorrow From the Sidelines: Reflections after the March for Women’s Lives
The event was a media feeding frenzy. Cameras and reporters were everywhere. One TV network reporter walked up to me and said, “Are you here as a part of the anti-abortion group?” “No,” I said, “I am here as a part of the pro-life group.” She paused for quite a long time and then finally figured out what I was saying.

Faith vs. Polity - Bishop Fitz Allison responds to Rev. Zabriskie
Thus, we are "entitled" to differ regarding important theological

Forward in Faith Leader Reacts to HOB DEPO Statement
For this we can be grateful, because it allows for a clear analysis of what the Bishops of ECUSA actually have in mind.
