Do you have friends who are sinners to the core? Yes. Good people just not saved.

As a pastor would you invite a prostitute over for dinner? If I knew one maybe I would. I would make sure my wife was okay with it first though. That could end up being a strange situation. Oh and ,if I were a pastor.

Would you invite a gay co-worker? (Such as my immediate supervisor)
Does he or she have to be a co-worker. My best friend growing up is gay and yes he has been to my house for dinner. I also have a very close family member, not a brother or sister, that is gay and yes they come to dinner and I go to their house for dinner, or I have in the past, now that I live in a different state it is a bit difficult

Would you GO to either of their homes? I have in the past.

How about spending an evening with a man who did you great harm in the past? If that person had asked for forgiveness probably but since the two who come to mind have not and I do not live near them most likely not ever gonna happen.

....Or left your denomination? Yes I have and still do.

I am really curious.

hope that answers your questions. =)

I think if we only allow ourselves to fellowship those like us then we are not doing as Jesus taught us to do. We are not following His example. We can be in the world but not like the world. INSULATION not ISOLATION.
