In discussion with the pastors at LifeJourney Church i have decided to form a Home Group in San Francisco so that we can worship, bible study, and pray together. If you are already familiar with LifeJourney Church or you have been looking for an evangelical church that truly supports all people, i hope you will join us for fri …

[FYI: this group is not run by Dr. Michael Brown. In fact, he has nothing to do with it nor indorses it or even knows of its existence as of this writing] In his book, "A Queer Thing Happened to America" (offered on Amazon), Dr. Michael Brown takes a factual look at the history and impact of the Homosexual Agenda. Could it be that like Feminism today, what might have started out as a good thing, a right not to be abused and to be treated humanly, has gone too far? Is it out of control? Can …
