Article talking about how the church will change its views on gays.

Not exactly the faithful take on things.

There's a grain of truth there. It wasn't like Spencer Kimball said "really weird thing happened, out of nowhere, God came to me and told me we need to give black folks the priesthood. Weird. Never saw that coming."

Rather it was a process that had been stewing for decades, with a lot of thought, arguments, and disagreements among senior church leaders (i.e. apostles).

The faithful take is that God allows his servants to work it out and when the time is right, he will put his seal of approval on it. In ways, not so different than many of us have experienced in our own lives.
