The Metropolitan Church: The Story of Transformation

Many years ago I interviewed a local minister for the Metropolitan Church here in Grand Rapids. The denomination was formed specifically to focus on the needs of gay Christians. In its early days, the church the same very fundamentalist theology that most of the congregations who expelled their gay members did. Over the years they have embraced a more progressive spiritual world view. I don't have a copy of that original program from way back when. But one day while we were staying in our Florida condo for a few days, my wife tells me that she met our neighbors in the complex; 2 women, one of whom was the denominational head of Metropolitan. Well, we got to know them both quite well over the years, and when we do go down we always try to arrange a dinner out to catch up. Nancy Wilson is a remarkable spiritual leader. I hope you give this a listen. Enjoy. Theme music "Nigal."
