A space for honest,

faithful conversation

This forum creates room for the questions that matter most — at the intersection of Christian faith and the lived experience of same-sex attracted and gender diverse persons. Over four evenings we will read scripture together carefully, share our stories openly, and move toward a faith that is both truthful and radically welcoming.

Whether you arrive with certainty, doubt, pain, or hope — you belong here. Our conversations are shaped by listening, not lecturing; by dialogue, not debate.

What we cover

Internal Homophobia & Faith

An exploration of internalised homophobia — how shame takes root in same sex attracted and gender diverse persons and how faith communities can be part of healing rather than harm.

Shame & Identity
Conversion Theology
Healing & Wholeness
Testimony

Homophobia in the Church & World

A candid dialogue about external homophobia — in our churches, institutions, and broader society. How do we name harm, seek justice, and build communities that are genuinely safe for everyone?

Institutional Harm
Advocacy
Inclusive Ecclesiology
Moving Forward

The Clobber Passages

A careful, contextual study of the scriptures most often used to condemn same-sex attracted and gender diverse people.

We’ll ask: what did these texts mean to their original audiences — and what do they mean for us today?

Genesis 19 (Sodom and Gomorrah)
Leviticus 18 & 20 (The Holiness Code and Abomination)
Romans 1 (What is Natural)
1 Corinthians 6 (Homosexual?)
1 Timothy 1 (Loving Commitment)
Historical Context

Marriage & One Flesh

What does the Bible actually teach about marriage? We’ll explore Genesis 2, the teaching of Jesus, and Paul’s writings — and consider how covenantal love, faithfulness, and mutuality speak into LGBTQ+ relationships today.

Matthew 19
