Her pastoral call is to a mission start of the ELCA called the "House for All Sinners and Saints" in Denver.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00506485333743516883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8782597.post-66196855167605146442013-11-09T19:27:22.501-06:002013-11-09T19:27:22.501-06:00And she works in the Methodist church?

In other ways, she is on the far left. The best spin I can put on her ministry is that, in her own way, she is reaching people who would never set foot in church otherwise. The main problem I have is not so much with her, but with (as you rightfully point out), how she has been raised up as a poster child by the liberal mainline as a way to do ministry and revitalize a diminishing denomination. More than once, I have seen her referred to as a "rock star" in ELCA quarters.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00506485333743516883noreply@blogger.com
