| Pastor expresses support for Kellam-Scott's
critique of The Layman
[3-6-01]
A pastor supports Barbara Kellam-Scott's comments on the recent issue of
The Layman. The Rev. Kristine Jane Jensen, pastor of First
Presbyterian Church in Audubon, Iowa, has written a
letter to PresbyWeb,
As a recent graduate of Union Theological
Seminary-Presbyterian School of Christian Education, she notes that
"my fellow students and I would read the publication and wonder
what school the Layman was talking about, so far from the reality of
campus life they seemed to be."
She adds that in her role as pastor, she believes she
is called to present to her congregation "the range of ideas that
are being expressed in church and society," and that doing less
would be an act of distrust in their "intelligence and
discernment."
