Many in the ELCA (Evangelical Lutheran Church in America) who remember with loyalty the strength and uniqueness of our Lutheran tradition and the necessity of "Christ Alone" have had division thrust upon us. Recent decisions of the denomination have exposed a schism within the ELCA - resulting from the long-term promotion of: 1) a Politicized Agenda; 2) an Ecumenized Agenda; and 3) a Sexualized Agenda. Since the inception of the ELCA, church leaders have vocally and vigorously supported these agendas and achieved their relative "success." In doing so, they have brought a time of decision and confessing upon the ELCA.
