10-Point Theological Scorecard

Christology

Is Jesus the only way? (John 14:6)

ACNA orthodox — Trinity, creeds, resurrection affirmed per BCP 2019 foundation.

Strong

Scripture

Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?

Verify inerrancy stance.

Caution

Men's Discipleship

Intentional formation for men?

Verify men's ministry.

Caution

Soteriology

Faith alone? How is salvation presented?

Verify faith-alone soteriology.

Caution

Gender / Biblical Design

Biblical manhood and womanhood by God's design — patriarchal, complementarian, egalitarian, or affirming gender ideology?

The Rev. Lane Cowin is listed as ordained clergy ('The Rev.') serving as Senior Director of Ministries — female ordained priest/deacon confirmed. Per rubric (women pastors/elders = red). Prior assumption that ACNA Diocese of the Mid-Atlantic 'is solid' must be qualified: DOMA permits female ordination to diaconate and (in some parishes) priesthood.

Dan Marotta Rector (male); Lane Cowin female ordained clergy as Senior Director of Ministries; Ben Lansing male Deacon; Tee Feyrer and Will Clark male College Ministers.

WARNING!

Leadership Structure

Male elders/pastors? Accountability?

Ordained clergy: Rev. Dan Marotta (Rector), Rev. Lane Cowin (Senior Director of Ministries, female), Rev. Ben Lansing (Deacon), Rev. Tee Feyrer (Campus Director), Rev. Will Clark (VCU College Minister). Bishop: Rt. Rev. Christopher S. Warner.

Caution

Preaching Style

Expository or topical/therapeutic?

Verify expository vs topical.

Caution

Mission Clarity

Great Commission central?

Verify Great Commission focus.

Caution

Cultural Alignment

DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?

Verify cultural alignment.

Caution

Accountability Structure

Denominational home, elder plurality, or external network — is the pastor answerable to anyone?

ACNA Diocese of the Mid-Atlantic — Bishop Christopher Warner. ACNA is orthodox on scripture/creed but DOMA's permissive stance on female clergy is a yellow/red signal depending on rubric sensitivity.

Sources & Evidence

Enrichment Notes

MAJOR FINDINGS: (1) Correct URL is redeemerrva.org, not redeemerrichmond.com. (2) Female ordained clergy (Rev. Lane Cowin) present. Per batch priors note ('ACNA Diocese of the Mid-Atlantic is solid'), this challenges that prior — DOMA does permit female ordination in practice. Overall moves from yellow to red given confirmed ordained female clergy.

These are the URLs consulted to arrive at this church's scoring. Score-note claims are synthesized from homepage content, denominational directories, and public statements of faith at the time of review. Church websites change frequently; we're progressively adding Internet Archive snapshots to prevent link rot.
