It’s sturdy and unassuming, all sharp angles and gray stucco. You might drive right past it, maybe mistake it for another gym or suburban shopping center along Highway 65. But it’s the enormous white cross in front of Rocklin’s Destiny Church that makes a lasting impression. So, too, do founding Pastor Greg Fairrington’s sermons.

Take the one on Sept. 11, in which he predicted “the fury, and the chaos that this doctrine of sexual orientation is going to bring to our society.”

Or the one in which he laments President Joe Biden’s efforts to end conversion therapy — a practice widely known to make LGB people twice as likely to attempt suicide and that causes “severe psychological distress” among transgender people. “I had people walk out on this part in the first service,” he said in June. “But somebody has got to call a sin a sin, and if it’s offensive, so be it … the word of God is written to change culture, not for culture to change the word of God.”
