claimed Tammy Faye taught us “how to die.” That she has become, in death, something of an evangelical cultural icon surprises me very little in our lawless age. The news from ABC that the private family service after Tammy Faye’s death was conducted by a homosexual “pastor” illustrates very clearly what she believed about the authority of the Scriptures.

In fact her son Jay Bakker is an emerging church planter (aren’t they all?!) and "pastor" in the neo-liberal cult of the Emergent Church. He said, "The service was performed by my good friend Randy McCain of Open Door Community Church in Sherwood, AR."

And why not? Bakker’s already had a personal conversation with God where the Lord told him sin is no longer sin:

“The more I follow grace, the more I’m drawn to him [God], the more I’m willing to stand up for people being persecuted,” says Jay today. “This sounds so churchy, but I felt like God spoke to my heart and said ‘[homosexuality] is not a sin.’ ”
