What to Think of Ellen and Her "Wife"

The lavish wedding ceremony of comedienne/talk-show host Ellen DeGeneres and her “wife,” actress Portia di Rossi, was the theme of an Oprah show a couple of days ago. Among the viewers was Sue Bohlin, a speaker and writer who, among her many other Christian responsibilities, serves on the board of Living Hope Ministries, a Christ-centered organization that helps people struggling with unwanted homosexuality. Sue's cogent and compassionate response to that program makes for very insightful reading.

I have mentioned Sue Bohlin before on this blog. She is a woman Claire and I greatly respect and her work alongside her husband with Probe Ministries is something we especially appreciate. But for this column, you'll have to zip over to another team project she's involved in. It's a web outreach organized by over a dozen Christian women called The Tapestry: A Christian Women's Collective.

You'll find Sue's column right here. And it's well worth the trip over there to read. But I'm betting you'll also start browsing around a bit once you're there. You'll discover it's a very nifty site that you'll want to revisit often.
