White House to Order Faith-Based Grant Recipients to Accept LGBT Applicants

WASHINGTON DC, May 29 (C-Fam) A source within the federal government has informed the Friday Fax that the White House is quietly moving forward with a policy change that will require charitable humanitarian groups to accept LGBT applicants in order to qualify for government funding, even those religious groups that might have religious objections.
The policy change is linked to an executive order President Obama issued last July that prohibits federal contractors from discriminatory hiring practices based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Faith-based groups were already wrestling with that order.
Things are about to get exponentially worse for faith-based groups who perform humanitarian tasks and receive not contracts but financial grants for doing so.

Wheaton students protest ex-lesbian Rosaria Butterfield
Denny Burk blog
Over the weekend, I read the news of Rosaria Champagne Butterfield’s recent visit to Wheaton College. The reports I read focused on a demonstration led by Wheaton students who were concerned about Butterfield’s testimony. It’s no surprise when students on a secular university campus stage a public protest against Butterfield. But it is quite surprising when about a hundred students demonstrate at an evangelical bastion like Wheaton. The question is this: Why did these students feel the need to demonstrate?
It turns out that they did not like the message that Butterfield was bringing to the college. And the message they didn’t like was the story of her own conversion to Christ. As I have noted here before, Butterfield was formerly a tenured lesbian professor specializing in feminist studies at Syracuse University. But the Lord intersected her life and won her to Christ through the witness of a local minister and his wife. In her book, Butterfield is very clear that following Christ meant repenting of her lesbianism. And that’s the part that the Wheaton demonstrators didn’t like.

Summer Reading To Equip Your Teens
Mission America resources on homosexuality
Have you had it up to here with the brainwashing of your kids? We have an answer: Linda Harvey's popular new book, "Maybe He's Not Gay: Another View on Homosexuality."
In a conversational way,"Maybe He's Not Gay" will equip you and your children with the common sense truth about homosexual behavior and its impact on America.
The homosexual agenda doesn't have a chance when the reality about this movement is unveiled. Not only is the sympathy of our kids misdirected toward homosexual behavior, this movement is leading them directly away from the Lord. They are being manipulated to believe that kindness toward someone drawn to homosexuality must include approval for that behavior as a new identity, "LGBT."
But you and I know there is no such identity in Scripture. The only label given to homosexuality is "sin."
Want to order? Go to our web site and also,if you'd like to contribute to our listener-supported media ministry, donate online right from our home page, HERE. Just scroll to the bottom and click the "Donate" button. And follow the instructions for ordering Linda's book--also easy!
Thanks and God bless!
