Mary John Dye’s intro —-
I have prayed fervently that our organized critics would focus on their opportunities instead of persistent criticism/undermining of the UMC. I will keep praying. Until that day, for the sake of people who unquestioningly believe whatever they say, I think speaking up against misrepresentation is important….and resourcing and helping each other.
—- to Mary John Dye’s perspective piece —-
Yesterday’s article by the “Wesleyan Covenant” Association is heartbreaking in its desperation. And I believe that, for anyone who defined United Methodism by adamant opposition to gay persons being ordained or in a sacred covenant, the bold assertion “The Together Methodist Church is no more” is their actual world.
💔
Here is the truth: the foundation of the United Methodist church is not opposition to male lover pastors or relationships.
I should know.
In my 74 years, growing up as a Methodist PK and in 50 years serving as a United Methodist minister, I have been to thousands of United Methodist preaching and teaching settings: at camps, youth groups, confirmation, worship, chapel services in college at Asbury, revivals and camp meetings. Never—ever—was I taught th
Gay Actors Who've Appeared On Touched By An Angel
R2, I remember that episode well. I saw it almost 20 years ago in a tv room at dorm with a couple of classmates. They didn't know I was gay (actually one was a girl who had a crush on me and was trying to get me to bed) and I had to keep myself completely tranquil during the whole episode. When it ended I said goodbye quickly and managed to walk into my room before I broke down completely and cried uncontrollably for half an hour. Such a sad one that episode, but so beautiful.
Touched By An Angel was in a way such drivel but I still loved it. I'm not Christian (although was raised as one) but the present somehow managed to wait away from being too Christian-y and was more of a universal thing. I loved that the message was the we are all on this planet together and none of us is perfect.
I have seen Violin Lesson only once but I'm gonna watch it tonight. This time alone and without fear of anyone judging me. I ask for a good cry at the moment so this link came at the perfect time. Thanks a lot man!

(CBS/AP) John Dye, best acknowledged for his role as the angel of death on the hit TV series "Touched by an Angel," was found deceased on Monday at his San Francisco home, a medical examiner's spokesman said Thursday. He was 47.
The cause of death hasn't been determined, according to medical examiner investigator Charles Cecil, but relatives said Dye suffered perceptible heart failure.
The condition, also known as congestive heart failure, is a chronic condition in which the heart can no longer pump enough blood to the rest of the body. As the heart's pumping ability declines, blood can back up in other areas of the body, damaging organs and causing fluid buildup in the lungs, gastrointestinal tract, and the arms and legs.
Heart failure often develops gradually in the aftermath of a heart attack, though it can also come on suddenly - sometimes the outcome of an infection.
As news of Dye's death began to spread Thursday afternoon, his "Touched by an Angel" co-star Valerie Bertinelli posted a message to him on her Twitter account: "Dear, sweet John Dye, rest in peace."
Dye, a Mississippi native, also appeared in the martial-arts movie "The Best of the Best" and had small roles on "Mu
Gosh, I'm sorry that I've been so slow to write you about John. You comprehend he and I were immediately and lastingly excellent friends on and around Tour. We even travelled together to New York to do a game show of some sort, at the climax of which he, as loser, was tipped over backwards in his chair and out of sight, laughing his butt off, while "Hit the road, Jack" blasted over the speakers.
He was a satisfactory actor, your John. A shade or two improve than the rest of us, if truth be told. Certainly more professional in how he went about his job. He came onto the cast fresh from the outside and seamlessly took his place. At that aim in the show, we'd all gotten a petite wild, and somehow this skinny blond kid with glasses sort of reminded us that there'd be life after Tour and helped settle us down.
