"Uniting Christian & Jewish Clergy from Around the World"
In the book “Stop Dating The Church”, Josh Harris popularized the analogy that church membership is akin to marriage.
As such, when things become difficult, according to Harris, one should not set out in search of greener pastures but instead endure through the misery.
So does his resignation as pastor at the scandal-ridden Covenant Life Church constitute a form of abandonment akin to divorce?
In most doctrinally conservative churches, the divorced cannot usually remarry without a profound curtailment of their ecclesiastical privileges and opportunities.
So by the logic of his own analogy, should Josh Harris be forever denied another ministry position?

We do NOT advise, nor do we seek, to bring members out of their current denomination or ministerial association. We seek to have a platform to UNITE the Clergy of the world in ways that can benefit not only the Kingdom of God, but also the men and women who faithfully serve their communities, one another, and God.
