Lutheran Church of Hope in West Des Moines, Iowa is the largest ELCA church in the nation and has numerous satellite locations, that are also ELCA churches, in surrounding communities. Lutheran Church of Hope hosted the ELCA's 2019 Southeastern Iowa Synod Assembly at their church. Lutheran Church of Hope and senior pastor Mike Housholder has been hosting ELCA synod assemblies for many years, which we will be detailing in a future blog. From a conversation I had years ago with an Lutheran Church of Hope pastor, their church also pays for many of the expenses that normally would be the responsibility of the Southeastern Iowa synod.
It is disturbing and I would suggest, a sin against God for Lutheran Church of Hope to be aligned, aiding and abetting a denomination that preaches universalism (that all are saved), is pro-abortion, uses feminine words for God, demonizes Israel, encourages homosexual relations even with their pastors, allows goddess worship, pushes liberal policies, ordains transgender individuals, twists and ignores Scripture and rejects God's clear historical account of creation recorded in Genesis. If you are a member of Lutheran Church of Hope or any ELCA church you would be wise to find a new church that is not be part of Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's battle against the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.

Disturbingly, there were two resolutions at the 2019 assembly, held at Lutheran Church of Hope, seeking funds from the United States to be given to the Palestinians. (See here)

What a great story about that man's life change. Jesus did that-and there is always Hope with Him to healing, restoration, and recovery. Too bad/sad that hope is not in an elca church.

A Ukrainian ambassador recently said, "There's no purgatory for war criminals; they go straight to hell."

When will people stop listening to these false and fake preachers In religion and begin listening to and conversing with GOD on a sovereign and independent basis?

Lutheran Church of Hope, even though it is part of the ELCA, is still more conservative than other churches in its denomination. Its website states that it acknowledges biblical inerrancy and that it will not perform gay weddings. Though its denomination is not Christian, I would still say that Hope is a Christian church.

I'd agree and would classify them as Christian, Brendon. But they are very wrong in what they are doing. They are part of and aid a denomination that promotes and advocates for the killing of babies. (see the list in the article for more) They chose to be ELCA. Leadership recently sent a family member to be educated in ELCA seminary. They are wrong and I would not want to be part of a church that willfully and contently is aligned with the ELCA. Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
