Pastor Who Shared How He Redirects His Same-Sex Attraction Labeled ‘Heretical’

February 16, 2022 by Staff

Tom Buck, pastor of First Baptist Church (FBC) in Lindale, Texas, claims Ed Shaw, pastor of Emmanuel City Centre in Bristol, England, is guilty of “heretical teaching.” Buck takes issue with how Shaw explains navigating same-sex attraction and has called on Sam Allberry and The Gospel Coalition (TGC) not to support Shaw any longer. 

Shaw says that when he sees a man he is attracted to, “I don’t necessarily need to repent of that recognition of beauty because what I’ve recognized is something that I as a human being have been designed to recognize.” Shaw shared these thoughts in a 2019 interview with Dominic Steele of The Pastor’s Heart. In addition to being a pastor, Shaw is the director of Living Out, a ministry whose goal is to ”encourage Christians, equip churches, and engage the world with God’s plan for sexuality and identity.”
