The Brave Network - Making Church safe for LGBTQIA+ people of faith
Manage episode 279363457 series 2835341
Church should be the safest place in the world. It should be a place of safety and refuge for all who want to follow Jesus. Yet the data paints a bleak picture for LGBTQIA+ (especially questioning) people of faith. Nathan Despott and the Brave Network have been working to change this. In this weeks episode, Nathan spoke to me about Queer theology, the harm done when a church is "welcoming but not affirming", and what we need to do to make church a safe place for all.
