A conservative Seattle church has purchased an old church building in liberal Southeast Portland, with services set to begin on Sept. 10, Details in the Oregonian.
Mars Hill Church, which was founded in 1996, is a mega-church with nine campuses in the Northwest and Southwest and three more on the way, including the new Portland facility at Southeast 32nd Avenue and Taylor Street.
Mark Driscoll, the founder of the church, preaches against homosexuality and urges gays to turn from sin.
"A gay couple walks into your group, you're supposed to tell them to repent," Driscoll said in a sermon posted on the church website. "And if at any point you don't tell them to repent, you're not faithful to Biblical Christianity."
