A priest who entered a same-sex civil union was recently reinstated to active ministry—promoted to parish leadership, school oversight, and even the diocesan marriage tribunal. All this, despite a public record of LGBT advocacy and no clear public repentance. In this video, I explore the deeper issue: What happened to the biblical standards for ministry? According to 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1, a spiritual leader must be above reproach—free from scandal and of good reputation even with outsiders. So why are these scriptural requirements being ignored? This isn’t about attacking a specific priest or bishop. It’s about calling the Church back to God’s standards for leadership, and restoring trust where scandal has caused confusion and hurt. Scriptures Referenced: – 1 Timothy 3:1–7 – Titus 1:6–9 – Canon 1394 (Code of Canon Law) If we want a holy Church, we need holy leaders. Let’s talk about it. #Priesthood #ChurchScandal #BiblicalLeadership #CatholicCrisis #AboveReproach #1Timothy3 #ClergyStandards #SameSexUnion #MichaelLofton
