Litton, pastor of Redemption Church in the Mobile, Ala., area, made the announcement in a short video released by the church saying he believes “God is calling [him] to devote the next five to 10 years of [his] life” to pursuing racial reconciliation through the local church.

Once again, God gets blamed for one’s decision. Why not just be honest about the situation and his reasons for stepping down?
