Human Sexuality in an emergent context
This post is not meant to be political or divisive in any way. I genuinely want feedback from this diverse group of emergent Anglicans from TEC, AMiA, CANA, etc. One of the things that attracts me most to the emergent church paradigm is that it is conversational and intentionality about dialogue.

Blessings,
