Joe Cobb was a United Methodist Elder for 20 years, and Leigh Anne Taylor is a United Methodist Deacon. They were married and even serving at the same church together until Joe could no longer deny the truth of his sexuality. While it was not an easy journey, they walked this journey together and have found their way to a place of peace with each other, their new loves, their children, and with God. They have shared their story in their book, 'Our Family Outing,' and we were honored to be able to have them as guests on our show.

This week Josh and Alex talk to someone a bit outside our normal guest pool, someone who thinks a bit differently. Bill Halter, who will be ordained as a United Methodist Elder in a few months, would not, based on his current theological understanding, perform a wedding for an LGBTQ+ couple, but he does believe that the incompatibility language should be removed from the Book of Discipline. He sees a church that is big enough and strong enough to sustain differing views and beliefs while focusing on our commonalities. Bill is currently serving as pastor at two United Methodist congregations, Maplewood United Methodist Church and Lockington United Methodist Church.
Recorded on 3/7/17.
