"Church of England's Ongoing Disagreement on Homosexuality and Leadership Resignation"
TL;DR
The Church of England's governing body will debate fresh commitments on homosexuality and same-sex couples, acknowledging "profound disagreement" on the matter. While the church does not allow same-sex marriage, it has been working to make the LGBTQ community feel more included and has apologized for past hostility. The upcoming Synod meeting will address these issues, as well as racial justice and the church's response to historic transatlantic slavery.
