In response to Dan Skogen's Jan. 18 letter, titled “ELCA has moved away from the Bible”:
We have to remember that this is his view only.
Before one decides to leave the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, as he is asking people to do, we need to research the church and beliefs past what he has furnished. And do what we want to do in our hearts. God created man in his own image. Not one of us is perfect. Nothing on earth is perfect; that was taken away from us back in the Garden of Eden.
Pray about what you should do. God does answer prayers.
