Sin, Slavery, and Louie Giglio

Louie Giglio, pastor of Passion City Church in Atlanta, has been invited to deliver the benediction at President Obama’s inauguration. Regardless of your political persuasion this is quite an honor. Billy Graham was invited to pray at 10 presidential inaugurations. To be invited to do anything Billy Graham had been asked to do is an honor.

Louie Giglio was in effect uninvited from attending and praying at the inauguration just a few days later. He was uninvited because of his views of homosexuality. Louie believes homosexuality is a sin. It turns out believing someone’s sexual preference to be a sin, is actually the ultimate sin against our society.

Why does it matter to you as Bible Study leader? Well, you as a Bible study leader live in this society. How you engage with the people around you matters. It is important to the King and to the kingdom that we do not allow the world to distract us from our purpose of being messengers of the gospel and drag us into an argument over individual sins.
