I believe that we are at a new moment, not a moment to change the eternal reality of our faith, but perhaps to just redirect our energy for awhile. Perhaps preaching against evolution can wait for awhile, we can give the gay marriage crusade a rest for a bit.
The moment today is about people suffering and filled with despair and fear. And we have a Christ perfect for this moment. preaching against gay marriage, evolution, or climate change has no relevance to a father struggling to feed his children. When we do that we appear out of touch and heartless. So maybe we could give it a rest, feed the kids, and later we can return to these other issues.
