If you have a staff member in your church pushing/embracing Critical Race Theory, that staff member needs to be a former staff member no later than yesterday. They are working against the Biblical Mandate and are damaging the Church / Body of Christ.
Some might say I tend to be too black and white. I say they are entitled to their wrong opinion.

I would suggest being careful about giving Side-B the back of your hand. Admitting Side-B tendencies &/or desires is not the sin. Acting on those tendencies / desires is the sin. Advocating for a group of people living in sin as an effort to reach out to them and help them escape the hold that sin has on them is what the church is called to do.
Participating in or supporting their sin in any way is acting against the mandate of Christ.

You might want to read your Bible a little closer. The "Man" of the is responsible for the upbringing and moral standing of those under his care. The "" (not a specific group who gather at a specific location) those who follow the teachings of the Scriptures and the WORD are to support the efforts of the Man of the . The is to care for the widows, their children, and the indigent who are part of the body of Christ. The is to reach out to those not in the body in an effort to share Christ and his love for them.
How would a man do that, through osmosis, telepathy? Unlike the animal kingdom with instinctive wisdom, with humans, everything is a learned process. From eating, tying your shoes, to wiping your bottom. How much more so with values that cultivate a subservient and altruistic nature in people.
That morality doesn't miraculously fall from the sky down to the supper table. The Church's failure to communicate, inspire families, set standards, has driven this generation to new lows in human behavior, AS A GROUP.
As I said earlier, reality lives at the macro level.

Desire is sin as well. Especially when you are talking about inordinate desires. Those in the Side-B camp deny that their desires are sin and say that only actions are sins, which is a Roman Catholic doctrine that does not hold water Biblically. This is why Revoice and much of the Side-B leadership is Roman Catholic.
Side-B advocates also deny that the Holy Spirit will and should provide them with sanctification in the area of sexuality. They will say that the Holy Spirit can work a miracle and provide them with healing, but deny that the Holy Spirit regularly works in the lives of Christians dealing with SSA to mortify their sinful desires.
Have you ever checked into the Revoice conference? That will give you a good glimpse of the seedy underbelly of Side-B.
I have zero issue with reaching out and ministering to those with all sorts of sin and temptations. I actually have a soft spot for people who struggle with SSA, as I can see that they are very lonely, confused and miserable. If you sit down with them privately, they will often open up and you can hear the hurt. It is heart breaking. I make it a point to reach out with the love of Christ to homosexuals.
However, 1. I cannot placate those who wish to hold onto and celebrate something that is sin. 2. I cannot allow the church to ordain men who say they are "gay-but-celibate". 3. I cannot allow the church to import the language of the homosexual community into its walls.
History is replete with evidence that once side-b, "gay-but-celibate", enters into a church, that Side-A is fast on it's heals.

And people wonder why religious affiliation in the U.S. is plummeting.

I know what you mean. The more the church simply reflects the culture at large, the less distinction and the less relevance it really has. The fallen world is the blind leading the blind and people need objective truth that does not shift with the wind and the waves. Yet, many churches are nearly thermometers measuring and reflecting the temperature of the secular world.
In the U.S. the church is fat, drunk and often corrupt. It is dying in many ways. In China, Iran, Africa, India and other places, the church is growing like crazy.
Oh, for the U.S. churches to awaken.
