3. Covenant Presbyterian Church is PCA, not PCUSA

PCA is a fundamentalist sect, separate from the Presbyterian Church in the USA.

excerpt from its website:
8. Resolution #7 be answered in the affirmative:
“....That the 5th GA of the Presbyterian Church in America affirm the Biblical position for our denomination which states that: 1. The act of homosexuality is a sin according to God's Word; 2. Churches should actively seek to lead the homosexual person to confession and repentance that he might find justification and sanctification in Jesus Christ, according to 1 Cor. 6:11; and 3. In light of the Biblical view of its sinfulness, a practicing homosexual continuing in this sin would not be a fit candidate for ordination or membership in the Presbyterian Church in America.” ” Adopted as amended

I'm just wondering if the pastor (who lost his daughter) of this Nashville congregation preached this viewpoint from the pulpit.
I'm not excusing the shooter, not at all, but maybe 'mental illness' as an explanation for the crime is merely one aspect of the motive.
