Excerpt
The confrontation between a pastor and a bishop in western Pennsylvania has brought the attention of many Lutherans to the theological and ecclesiastical issues affecting social ministry and justice advocacy.
An appeals panel has upheld the decision of a disciplinary committee recommending that the Rev. D. Douglas Roth, formerly pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church, Clairton, PA, be removed from the ministry. Investigating panels have also recommended the resignation of two other pastors, Rev. Daniel Solberg and Rev. William Rex.
