Great news today: David Gushee, our Saturday night keynote speaker for The Reformation Project conference in two weeks, will be announcing in his speech that he is changing his position on LGBT Christians. Hell also be releasing a book, Changing Our Mind, to which I was honored to write an introduction. Heres what Jonathan Merritt at Religion News Service has to say about it: It is difficult to overstate the potential impact of Gushee’s defection. His Christian ethics textbook, “Kingdom Ethics,” co-authored with the late Glen Stassen, is widely respected and was named a 2004 Christianity Today book of the year. He serves as theologian-in-residence for the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, a coalition of 15 theological schools, 150 ministries, and 1,800 Baptist churches nationwide.... In the end, Gushee says doesn’t think much about the backlash headed his way from his newfound opponents. I still love Jesus and read the Bible and pray every morning, and I don’t really care what they say, he said. I’m willing to let God and history be my judge.
