[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean...the local 'conservative' Episcopal parishes split off and joined the Anglican Diocese of Nigeria, where being gay is a crime.  So if you mean politically conservative, you are probably looking for an Anglican church.  I think that must be what you mean, since I don't know of many Episcopal churches where the sermons stray too far from the New Testament...you know, love thy neighbor, etc.[/quote]

When I attended National Cathedral services, twice, the homilies were full of social justice rhetoric.  I am not against gay marriage.  I want an inspired homily that does not delve into politics.  I guess I want a spiritual escape from the woes of the world.  I am active in many out of church service activities.

[b]I attended an Anglican church this morning (Falls Church Anglican).   I am trying to find the right church community.[/b][/quote]

Yes. This is the one you are looking for, OP.

Unfortunately there is no run-of-the-mill Epsicopal church anymore. They are either "social justice-y" churches or they are Anglican now in Nova.

Presbyterian is the same (USA is social justice-y and "in America" is the Anglican equivalent)...same with Lutheran (ELCA = social justicey and Missouri Synod = Anglican equivalent). Seems all churches are now dividing themselves into LGBTQ warriors and LGBTQ rejectors. Gone are the days of the "LGBTQ-FRIENDLY" brand. You have to take a stand all in or all out, as though this is what defines us.
The only one I've found that doesn't do this is Methodist. Yet. But no one attends.[/quote]
