a Texas church has been "disaffiliated" with the Southern Baptists of Texas convention because it began a ministry to gay and lesbian people. So, at first glance it looks like this church is ostracized because it is reaching out to the gay community.

Look further, it appears that the churches intent was to befriend, then change the gay people it attracted to its church. this kind of spiritual violence is despicable.
