Should Christians Cancel Alistair Begg Over His LGBTQ Wedding Response?

Should Pastor Alistair Begg be canceled over his controversial comments about LGBTQ weddings and his subsequent refusal to repent? That’s essentially the question at the center of ongoing debate over Begg’s views on same-sex nuptials.

Begg came under fire for comments made on his podcast last September, during which he responded to a grandmother whose grandchild was preparing to be wedded to a “transgender person.”

He said the grandma could attend and bring a gift so long as it was made clear she isn’t in agreement biblically with the marriage. After debate broke out over Begg’s position, the pastor—who still clearly affirmed his biblical view of marriage—delivered a sermon noting he was “concerned about the well-being” of the grandma’s relationship with her grandchild.

When I shared this word of knowledge with the audience, a young woman in the back of the room burst into tears. She had recently endured three miscarriages and was depressed because she feared she would never have a baby.

After this woman reluctantly came to the front of the auditorium, I prayed for her and asked the Lord to break the spirit of barrenness. Nothing dramatic happened in that moment. But I found out a year later that she became pregnant a month after the conference.{eoa}
