Boomer with Attitude / News Ted Haggard gets Elevated. Again.

The Elevation Church, one of those evangelical churches that offer free-ranging "worship experiences," has invited Ted Haggard and his wife to be its guest next Sunday. Haggard, you remember, made a career out of fiercely denouncing homosexuality — until, oops, it turned out that Haggard was buying both gay sex and crystal meth. The purpose of having Haggard at Elevation, says Pastor Steve Furtick, is to "allow the story of Jesus to be told through a man who lost it all and his wife who stood by him."
