DC Woman Sues Church for Tithes Payed...

Before reading and listening to the story I imagined this woman to be bitter and hateful, but in reality she's employing doctrine she's been taught.  It's apparent in the video (below) she has been programmed to believe homosexuality is wrong.  She admits one of her friends is gay.  This church and the leaders of it should be applauded for taking a stand.  I believe other churches would take the same stance if they didn't fear losing members which translates to money...

DC resident, Yvonne Moore sued Covenant Baptist Church over its support of gay marriage, Soledad O'Brien reported.  Moore, a member of Covenant Baptist for 37 years, sued for her weekly tithes of nearly $250,000 after Pastors Dennis and Christine Wiley performed a gay commitment ceremony in 2007.  “I don’t believe in that, I’m a southern Baptist,” Moore told O’Brien. “The bible speaks against that.  You cannot take that in the church.”

Moore was not the only member displeased with the union. According to CNN, the historically black church lost half of its congregation following its active support of marriage equality.  The church’s pastors consider the struggle gay rights an extension of the black civil rights movement.
“I don’t think we as a people have a lock on civil rights,” Pastor Dennis Wiley said. 

Moore has since dropped her lawsuit, but has not returned to the congregation.

    a killеr hеadline? Ι mean, I don't want to tell you how to run your blog, however what if you added a title that grabbed people's attentіоn?

    I mean "DC Woman Sues Church for Tithes Payed..." іs а little boгіng.
    You could pеek аt Үahoo's home page and see how they create post titles to get viewers to click. You might try adding a video or a pic or two to grab readers excited about everything'νе wrіtten.
    Just my opinion, it mіght bring your webѕіtе а lіttle livеlier.
