For sure a great honor, but wouldn't the world be a better place if a person could be identified as "inspiring" without being then limited or marginalized by saying their inspiration is a function of being gay or religious? I don't follow you for either of those reasons.
Bishop you are a world changer because you are real and we are grateful that you allow us to be real Bishop. I know you have a heart of a true shepherd which is why I can follow you. And although you have stretched us quite a bit, you have trained us how to change the world, and to be courageous and faith full and CITN has become such a holy convocation of Eagles...that everyone can't partake of movement that is taking place...I am just glad I am in the number. Blessings and Honor and Peace to you Bishop!
