I'm not sure he 'caved' per se. He may have always been like this but nobody ever asked.

I wouldn’t have said this 20 years ago, but now I know a lot of people who are gay and lesbian and they seem to have as good a spiritual life as I do. I think that kind of debate about lesbians and gays might be over. People who disapprove of it, they’ll probably just go to another church. So we’re in a transition and I think it’s a transition for the best, for the good. I don’t think it’s something that you can parade, but it’s not a right or wrong thing as far as I’m concerned.
RNS: A follow-up: If you were pastoring today and a gay couple in your church who were Christians of good faith asked you to perform their same-sex wedding ceremony, is that something you would do?
EP: Yes.

Yes, that's true, Fuego. I guess most evangelicals assumed he was on the same page as us in thinking same-sex marriage is wrong.

Apostasy. The great falling away. Here's another surprising revelation.
When your praise match your prayers, the answer will come.

Well at least he got one thing right. That ought to tell him something about where he is spiritually.
