Questions about God’s Love for 🌈 LGBTQ+ Folks?
We know that many people - queer and straight - coming from religious spaces have questions about God’s heart for LGBTQ+ folks and how the church as a whole reflects that heart. Questions that may have felt taboo to ask, questions they might not even know where to start with! We’re happy to share CCLB’s imperfect but sincere exploratory process, in case it’s helpful. Our desire is for the church to do better (much better) and for everyone, including our LGBTQ+ siblings, to feel God’s overflowing love and warm embrace.
Our Study Team Process
One of our co-pastors, Bill White, kept a blog about the journey our church went on to develop a radically welcoming posture with the LGBTQ community. It includes lots of suggested resources (though we can’t promise they are the most up to date - our journey began in 2016). You can read more HERE.
Years later, people still seem to find helpful and healing the pastoral letter Bill wrote to the congregation as the study team concluded. He reads it aloud HERE.
