Left Behind in the Mainline: Witnessing Within The Episcopal Church

From Christian Post-

One such individual is the Rev. Charles D. Alley, Ph.D., of St. Matthew's Episcopal Church in Richmond, Virginia.

In an interview with The Christian Post, Dr. Alley explained that when it comes to his congregation remaining in The Episcopal Church, "divorce is not an option for us."

"Each of us individually and corporately must discern the path of obedience that God has willed for us. We have discerned a call to stay in TEC and to provide an example of an authentic Anglican identity," said Alley.

"Editor's Note: This is the first in a series on churches that chose not to leave their respective mainline Protestant denominations despite disagreement with the denominations' changes in theological positions."

This is STIPULATING facts under discussion. Have any mainline Protestant denominations made changes in theological positions? Not that I'm aware of. Make your case on that FIRST, "Christian Post"! [And regarding TEC, if any proof-texting quote is pulled from some random ++Katharine Jefferts Schori speech, know that I'm calling BS.]
