No barb intended, but why the ed ECO, A Covenant Order of Evangelical Presbyterians? Aren't there the OCP and PCA?

I think that is a breakaway group that is only slightly more conservative than the PCUSA. They left the PCUSA but don’t want the theological rigor of the PCA, OPC, or even the EPC. I’ll have to do some reasons to confirm that.

They want to continue ordaining women is the big reason.

After a little more reading it appears that they want to keep the PCUSA, but without the gay issue.

They will continue the other liberal policies, such as women being ordained as ministers.

There are.
Wondering about this too......I’ m PCA and our denomination separated from the USA mainline 30 plus years ago.
Whyever would this pastor remain in an apostate church?
