How dare she?

Back in December, Larry Tomczak, Christian Post Op-Ed Contributor, wrote a rebuke to Amy Grant for having the gall to host a lesbian wedding on her property. Grant “declined to read it.” I wrote at the time that it was none of Tomczak’s business.

Now, Tomczak is throwing a hissy fit because Grant has given interviews to LGBTQ+-friendly journalists but has “expressed no interest in even reading” Tomczak’s “appeal.”

Grant hosted her niece’s wedding to a woman, saying, “even if I am in the wrong, God knows my heart,” and Tomczak said this was “dishonoring God.” And then he was baffled when Grant didn’t want to talk to him about it.

An enemy of God

Tomczak quotes James 4:4b, saying, “… do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God. Whoever therefore will be a friend of the world will be an enemy of God.”
