Chick-fil-A: My take
Ruling Elder Jean Reinhold, Cleveland Heights, Ohio, reflects on the Chick-fil-A controversy: "Whether they know it or not, everyone knows a gay person. Everyone’s life has been positively impacted by someone who is gay -- a teacher, a doctor, a dentist, a hospice worker. There are millions of gay people living in God's loving covenant. Throngs of gay Christians worship a compassionate God. The only way for me to help people understand that, and know who I am, is by meeting me. Stories change minds."
