Pastor resigns from Scottsdale minister group over press conference
Pastor Donald H. Heinrich of Shepherd of the Hills Congregational Church resigns after four members held a press conference for a political candidate without broad member approval. He criticizes the event as a violation of group norms and notes concerns about Christian versus Jewish references in the political race. The association's president says few officers or past presidents supported the conference and the group did not endorse a candidate.
